The Source Bulk Foods

Literally one of my favourite stores - ever. It used to be called 'The Source Bulk Food'. I love the fill-your-own container aspect and general eco-awareness. They also provide paper bags as well - handy when you find a tempting treat but didn't bring a container for it! The staff are always very friendly and helpful, but also let you just comfortably browse around and admire the variety of options while they do their thing. Trust me - there is a lot to admire! They have a variety of kitchen staples, dried legumes and lentils, protein powders, spices, cereals, nuts, snacks, sweet treats, hygiene products, and more! I even got toothpaste tablets from them once - just go in and check it all out! They also have stations to mill your own flour and make your own nut butter - how cool is that!!!? Unfortunately I've never used them because of concerns regarding my peanut allergy, but it seems like fun to use. They also have a kombucha station which I plan on trying out at some point in the next few weeks. Would definitely recommend. Just do it. Go in and explore. It's brilliant. Absolutely worth it.

When in in Christchurch this is one of the first places I go to. A beautifully laid out store with a huge array of plastic free products! The staff are really helpful and have so much knowledge. The Dark chocolate freeze dried strawberries are a must try! Bring your own containers to refill!
