A new chapter for Nature’s Way 🌿

Nature’s Way Nutrition Center has been serving the Freeport area for nearly 50 years, and I’m excited to officially introduce myself as the new owner.

My name is Kane Collalti and I took over the store a little over a month ago, and we’ve already been putting a ton of work into it. There’s still a lot to do, but I’m really excited about where it’s headed.

Over the next several months, you’ll see a lot happening:

• A completely refreshed store
• More vitamins, minerals & natural health products
• More options for skin, hair, beauty & personal care
• An expanded selection of healthy foods, snacks & specialty products
• A major expansion into sports nutrition
• New brands and products
• Online ordering & easier shopping
• Local partnerships, events & giveaways
• And much more

At the same time, I know Nature’s Way has customers who have been coming here for decades, and I want to keep the things that made this place special in the first place.

If you’ve shopped with us before, thank you for supporting this local business. And if you haven’t been in for a while, come check us out — things are changing pretty quickly around here.
