Greens N Grains Natural Food Store (GNG) in downtown Egg Harbor is undergoing a delightful expansion of their existing store and respective services. Located in the big, purple, classic building in downtown Egg Harbor at 7821 Highway 42, owner Kathy Navis is adding an additional 1000 sq. ft. by expanding into the adjacent space and enclosing a section of the front porch.
As part of the expansion, GNG’s selection of personal care products for hair care, skin care, toothpastes etc., will be greatly expanded. The gluten-free section will also be expanded, adding to the current selection. The healthy pet food department will triple in size, as well as adding many new options in the organic wine and beer section.
Greens N Grains is Door County’s only full service natural food store, offering a complete line of groceries including bulk nuts and grains, spices, organic coffees and teas, healthy pet foods as well as a full selection of cleaning products which are environmentally friendly. GNG has a broad array of supplements and herbs, protein powders and other nutritional products to help the consumer take control of their own health. The store is very pleased to offer many locally grown and manufactured products including as much local produce as possible. At present they stock local, sustainably grown salad greens, spinach, kale, swiss chard by Cherrydale Farm and local sprouts and wheatgrass juice. They also sell local eggs, beef, chicken and even local yak burgers.
The most exciting part of the expansion is the addition of a vegetarian and raw food deli and juice bar. The deli will offer a wonderful selection of raw foods prepared by our own “un-cook,” Cindy Knigge. The new deli will also feature freshly-pressed veggie juices, fruit smoothies, healthy bakery, a tea bar and organic coffees.
The construction is under way and is being undertaken in the most sustainable way possible. Birmingham Builders of Sturgeon Bay is doing the construction and they are carefully removing doors and windows and reusing them. They are pulling nails and reusing lumber, trim materials, insulation, plumbing fixtures, etc.. The flooring will be reused as much as possible and new flooring will include sustainable grown bamboo provided by Carpet One of Door County.
The staff of Greens N Grains is grateful for the local support and welcomes requests for new products that you would like to see included in the new expansion.
