Press & Awards
Press and Videos
We are thankful to the many publications (SAUCE, RFT, WHERE Magazine, St. Louis Post-Dispatch) and media sources (Channel 5, Fox News, KETC Channel 9, NPR) who have reported on our store and our mission. It has helped in more ways than we even know.
Below please find a couple of videos/links. The video is a bit out of date (for instance we no longer serve sandwiches at our store since we now have a café), but at least you can get a feel for our store and customers.
Awards
We are so grateful to be the recipient of several awards. We want to thank our customers who voted for us, or nominated us for these.
Local Harvest Grocery wins Best Grocery Store in RFT’s 2009 & 2008 Best of St. Louis Issue With a goal to source 50 percent of its products from within a 150-mile radius of St. Louis, Local Harvest won't be the biggest grocery store you set foot in. Nor will it have the widest selection, but it will leave you feeling good about the choices you're making. Whether you're a carnivore looking to buy humanely raised meats or a vegan looking to broaden your diet, Local Harvest brings you the best our region has to offer, along with a thoughtful selection of staples that will ensure you're not making multiple stops to complete your meal.
The 2009 and 2008 Sauce Reader’s Poll named Local Harvest Grocery as the Best Gourment Grocery in St. Louis.
Nominated in 2009 by the St. Louis Business Journal as a “Hero of the Planet.”
St. Louis City Award
In October, 2007, we won the Missouri Coalition for the Environment’s Green Business Award. We won because of our local food philosophy and because we use compostable packaging and have a recycling program that reduces our landfill waste considerably.
In November, 2007 we received a Kick Ass Award from 52nd City. You have to see the trophy-it is truly Kick Ass.
