Artisanal groceries!
Our local first approach extends to our grocery aisles, too. We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to dairies, growers, makers and producers here on the island, and we’re proud to bring you the absolute cream of the crop.
From everyday essentials like bread, milk and eggs to world-class olive oils, artisan chutneys and decadent chocolate – it’s all ready and waiting for you!
Introducing our RC Common Collection!
We’re so excited to introduce our Root Cellar Common Collection – our house line of pantry staples that aren’t necessarily the star of the show, but the show can’t go on without them.
They are the must haves, the real heroes behind your everyday meals, the things you reach for whether you’re fixing up your kid’s lunch or scrambling for a quick Tuesday dinner.
Look out for our Common peanut butter, spices, black beans, chickpeas, stone-baked pizzas, coffee beans, Okanagan fruit juices, pasta sauce, spices + more!
