Our Mission
We go beyond offering the cleanest, most minimally processed products. Our goal is to return product sourcing to its ancestral form — shrinking our footprint to work only with hyper-local producers whose offerings rotate with the seasons.
Every supplier we partner with uses renewable and regenerative agricultural practices. Organic and raw is the baseline, not the differentiator.
Think of us as a farmers market that never closes — one you can trust to source what's best for your body and best for our planet.
What We Stand For
Every product on our shelves must pass our uncompromising standard — a standard built on how humans have sourced food for thousands of years.
We only partner with farms that actively restore the land — building soil health, increasing biodiversity, and sequestering carbon with every harvest.
Every item traces back to a specific farm, a specific field, within our region. No middlemen, no mystery supply chains — just the land and its stewards.
Our inventory breathes with the seasons. What's available reflects what the earth offers right now — not what can be stored, shipped, or forced into ripeness.
The Seasonal Promise
The seasons are not an inconvenience — they are the point. A rotating marketplace mirrors the natural rhythms of the land, delivering produce, dairy, and proteins at their most nutrient-dense and flavorful.
We began this experiment right here in Raleigh, tapping into what the rich Southeast has to offer. And as the seasons change, so does our shelves.
From the Land
Every item we carry has a story — a specific farm, a specific practice, a specific season. Here's a glimpse into the world we source from.
Proving the Concept
Our roots run deep in North Carolina soil. Grounded is our proof of concept — that a marketplace built on hyper-local, seasonal, regenerative principles can work, can thrive, and can feed a community better than anything else on the shelf.
As the Southeast delivers, we expand. The vision is a regional network of Grounded marketplaces, each one anchored to its own land, its own producers, its own season.
