I'll be moving to the Costa the end of February and will miss my local farmer's market (great farm-to-table organic fruits and veggies) and stores like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. When I was in Nerja for a month last summer, I discovered the little TM/Maharishi store on the road to Frigiliana and a few organic/ecologico items in the supermercados. Any other suggestions/directions would be most appreciated! Gracias!

Hi,

There's loads of organic produce here, most of the big supermarkets have an extensive range, and many of the small local ones have something - although not always in the fresh produce. Once you get to know local people, you might ask if you can buy produce from their campos, too. It's very easy to eat well here!

Thanks for the encouragement, Pricklyone. I wonder if you might be able to suggest particular stores, not only for produce but also other organic items like grains, beans, nuts and seeds, breads and pasta, etc. Are there "natural food" stores in the Nerja area? Which supermarkets carry organic produce regularly? I shopped at several Mercadona and Supersol locations, as well as the Lidl in Torrox, but found very little. I guess I'll find out when I get there, but a little direction would help me get started. Thanks!

Thank you.

I don't live in Nerja, and rarely visit but, as I recall, there are many specialist shops in and around.

Hi, 

I saw your post today, and although it was a while ago was wondering if you had any success finding Organic produce, grass-fed meats, grains, etc. I have relocated to the area and seeking the same. Would appreciate any advice you could give.

Thank you, Sherry

As a matter of fact, there is an excellent organic store on the road between Nerja and Frigiliana just north of the autovia, run by the Maharshi Ayurveda organization (TM). No grass-fed meats, of course, since they're vegetarian, but an excellent assortment of ecological fruits and vegetables, some of it grown on their own finca, plus dried goods like grains, beans, and breads, oils, vinegars etc, and even their own homemade live sauerkraut. Just drive up the road toward Frigiliana and you will see the sign on your right. Open 9-15h M-F I believe. https://agriculturavedicamaharishi.es/
