Our Story
In 1989, a mother and son set out to form the first high quality vitamins and all natural supplements store in the Temecula Valley, dedicated to bringing the community a natural approach to health.
Their 1,200 square foot store, originally called Health Zone, has now evolved to what the store is today; an 18,500 square foot organic and natural food market called Organic Roots. In 2014, the company celebrated its 25th year anniversary in business as well as in Temecula!
There are still so many who are unfamiliar with what “organic & non-gmo“ mean, but for thousands of families in the Inland Empire that do know the importance of eating organic, non-gmo and local, Organic Roots is the place to go.
Organic Roots features a robust 100% organic produce area with lots of locally grown options. They also have a huge array of specialty dietary products like gluten-free, vegetarian, raw, paleo, keto, and more. But besides your everyday grocery needs, Organic Roots features 10 organic and all-natural food bars. A made-to-order juice & smoothie bar, made-fresh daily hot bar, a cold case deli with house-made salads, an olive bar, a sandwich bar, a burrito bar, a salad bar with 40+ ingredients, a bakery and coffee bar.
“Our goal is to be a place in the community where people can come for high quality, local organic produce, all their grocery needs (no matter the dietary restrictions), a grab and go meal or juice, but most importantly, to be a resource to people who have questions about organic, non-gmo, and other health related concerns,” states Paul Cook, Founder and Owner of Organic Roots.
Over the past 30 years, Organic Roots has seen many ups and downs, but in the last several years they have seen a huge increase in the community’s alertness of what the government and food industry is allowing our country to consume; many of the same things that are banned in countries all over the world. As the community and even the country, gain more and more awareness, stores like Organic Roots are going to be a vital part to the health and well-being of the people.
