Community Giving

Good Stuff From Around Here

We have supported local growers and producers since 1980. Buying local means supporting local communities, jobs, independent farmers and producers; it also reduces the distance from farm to plate, and lets you stay connected to the seasons. This summer we will highlight LOCAL in every department; from local flowers to coffee, honey, cheese, pies, and more! We hope you will stop by and help us support our local growers.

At Whole Foods Market, we are active participants in our community. We are extremely proud of our community involvement and the relationships that we continue to make each month! We strive to make a difference.

Our Community 5% Days are one meaningful way we give back to our community. On designated days throughout the year a total of 5% of the day's net sales are donated to local non-profit organizations. Customers help support our selected organizations just by shopping on these 5% Days. If your 501(c)3 non-profit organization is interested in applying to become a 5% Day recipient, please pick up a 5% Day Application Form at the store.

Bettering ourselves by bettering the community!

Overstock donations are made almost every day to a local food bank, God’s Pantry and a homeless shelter, The Hope Center. We also are committed to helping other local organizations like the Humane Society, Community Action Council, the Sierra Club, Lexington Children’s Museum and many other worthy causes through our 5% Days and Wooden Nickel programs.Stop by and take a tour of our wonderful store and check out our calendar online filled with interesting and diverse classes. We can’t wait to see you and make you part of our Wild Family!
