Just read we are getting a Sprouts Farmers Market very near us. From what I
can glean from their web site, it's seems similar to Whole Foods which would
be a good thing as we need to travel about 12 miles to the closest Whole
Foods.

Anyone have experience with this place?

They're actually closer to Trader Joes than Whole Foods, IMO. If you've ever been to
a Henry's , they're just like those. Clear 'nuff?

They usually have good produce, and they're one of the few places I can find chicken
backs for stock. They're also not as pricey as Whole Foods.

There are four different "natural" supermarkets in the Phoenix area:
Whole Foods, Wild Oats, Sprouts Farmers Market, and Henry's Farmers Market.

Whole Foods and Wild Oats are basically compariable; trendy and leaning
toward old well-to-do hippies and young urban professionals.

Henry's is a notch lower, more bulk foods, less variety, maybe a tad
lower prices, smaller stores.

The Sprouts that I've been to here was a notch lower than that. Maybe a
bit larger store size, even less variety on the shelves, but maybe a bit
more variety in the produce and bulk foods bins.

Depending upon where you live and what you have available to you,
Sprouts is probably more than adequate.
