|
|
Does anyone know if there are any stores that sell organic food, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, herbs, et cetera? Anywhere in South Korea is fine by me. Many thanks in advance for your help. Have a nice day. |

Its a strong new trend here. I've now got two stores (chains: Hansallim & Woori Co-op) offering everything you list & more within a 5-minute walk from my house in a town of 90000. Pricy, but I'm a happy customer & they look to be doing good business. |

That's awesome, schwa! I've found hansalim.or.kr but wasn't able to get Woori Co-op. Any suggestions? |

Kim's Club, E-mart, and various department store grocers generally have marked "organic" produce sections. They sometimes will carry organic/frou-frou prepared foods like salad dressings and juices. |

I've seen organic stuff at Lotte Mart, too. There's also a little organic and whole foods grocery just a few blocks from my apartment in Anyang. |
