In 2007, Local Harvest Grocery opened with the simple mission of bringing locally grown and produced foods to the Saint Louis area through a friendly, small grocery store.  Our goal was to focus on supporting small farms and farmers who used mostly organic practices and who raised their animals mostly outside. We've gone through many ups and downs during these 10 years, and we couldn't have made it through without the support of our customers, farmers, and vendors. We are proud to offer the largest selection of locally sourced meats, eggs, milk, produce, chocolate and an assortment of locally produced dry-goods, beers, wines, spirits, teas and coffees. 

For many of our vendors and farmers, we were the very first place they ever sold their product. Many have gone on to have shelf space in larger grocery stores, or have opened their own retail store or restaurant, and we are so happy to celebrate this success. We believe it's important to support your local economy by purchasing locally grown and produced foods and feel honored to have been in your lives and this community for 10 years! Many thanks to our customers, vendors, hard-working staff and the Tower Grove Neighborhood for supporting Local Harvest Grocery and supporting the local food economy.  

Red Top Oven, based out of Buffalo, MO, is reviving the art of food preservation. Sourcing local produce at peak freshness from area farmers' markets, Red Top Oven transforms it into bright jars of pickled, fermented, and preserved goodies. We carry their sauerkraut, marinara sauce, smoky salsa, jams and jellies, though they sell out fast! Learn more about the ladies of Red Top Oven in this article or on their Facebook page.  

The popular Double Up Food Bucks program is still ongoing! Customers with SNAP/EBT Food Stamps may purchase local produce at regular price and receive a voucher for the same amount to spend on any local or non-local produce here at Local Harvest Grocery.
