Hey, Seattle!

Our new store at 951 NW Ballard Way opens May 9, and we’re celebrating with great deals at both of Seattle area stores- on Mercer Island and in Ballard! We can’t wait to pull up a chair and share our love of tasty food with you. In the meantime, we thought some introductions were in order. We’ll go first.

We’re the world’s first B Corp grocer.

B Corp is a tough-to-get certification recognizing the good stuff we do for our people, planet and communities. Want to know more?

We give back to our community.
We’re serious about making a difference in our neighborhoods—from donating 10% of after-tax profits to local non-profits, to giving our staff paid time off to lend a hand in the community.

We really, really love local.
We’ve worked hard to build lasting relationships with local farmers, ranchers, fisherman and makers to bring you the best products from close to home.

We’re makers and bakers.
Our people are an eclectic bunch and we all share the same passion for tasty, high quality food.

We’re not happy ’til you’re happy.
Want to try something? We’ll open it for you. Don’t need the whole pack? We’ll split it for you. It’s just the New Seasons way.

Welcome!

The City of Seattle will have a disaster drill from 9am-noon, Saturday April 28. Communications HUBS will be set up all over the City. Magnolia’s hub will be in the Blaine parking lot. In case of a disaster such as an earthquake we expect all or most communications will go out, phones, cell service, power etc. This HUB will be powered by solar power and generators, and will communicate with the Seattle EOC, Emergency Operations Center where the Mayor and all City Services will be. Come and see this in operation as reports are received and sent via radio to the EOC. Volunteers such as the Boy Scouts and Amateur Radio operators are assigned to the event along with FEMA and are often visited by the Mayor.
