The Natural Food Center promotes concepts of a healthy planet for healthy people. From cups made of corn, to floors made of bamboo.
 
Imagine sitting down and eating a meal in a completely green setting. That is exactly what happens when you walk into Natural Food Center. Everything from the floor to the paint on the walls is environmentally friendly. Even the cups, plates, napkins, silverware, and the tables are eco-friendly.

Although the switch to the new service-ware was slightly more expensive, they feel the change was well worth it. Both owners want everyone across the Big Country to understand that they are not powerless when it comes to helping yourself, and the environment.

There is always time to go green in the Big Country. The Natural Food Center is one of just a few stores which sell the new biodegradable service-ware.

A local church was the first to purchase the cups from the store.
