INTIMATE BIODYNAMIC WELLNESS STORE OPENS ON MELROSE AVENUE

Pantry LA Offers Direct Delivery To Los Angeles

The World of Biodynamics Has Officially Arrived

Angelenos and the SoCal wellness community are reveling in the opening of Pantry LA in West Hollywood. Pantry LA is a boutique marketplace built on community and the wisdom of experts. It’s where the biodynamic and naturopathic lifestyle is not only celebrated, but elevated. Pantry LA offers direct delivery to LA via phone at 310-707-1556 and Postmates. 

A one-stop shop where locals can pop in to meet their daily wellness needs, Pantry LA creates a relaxed environment led by experts to help those looking for everything from biodynamic local farm produce, fish, and meat, to coffee, medicinal tonics, hemp and beauty products.

Co-founded by biodynamics fanatic Brandie Rossi, Pantry LA realizes a place where the heart of a city can thrive in a physical space of self-discovery with the goal of improving health and wellness. Brandie grew up in a farm community and by an early age understood the connection between the cycle of nature and our health. As the former Erewhon regional director of nutrition and assistant director of stores, Rossi has taken her experience with larger markets and scaled it down to create an intimate space. Pantry LA is open 9 am to 7 pm Monday through Sunday.

What exactly Is Biodynamic? 

Organic and biodynamic approaches are very similar; both involve raising foods without chemicals and GMOs. Organic farming focuses on achieving food of high nutritional quality and optimum quantities without using artificial fertilizers, synthetic chemicals, genetic modification, antibiotics, growth promoters, hormones or pesticides. However, biodynamic takes it a step further than organic. It is a holistic practice where all things are viewed as living and interrelated systems – animals, plants and the solar system. Unlike traditional farming methods, biodynamic practices create healthier plants and heals the earth by replenishing the soil and adding vitality to the plant, soil and livestock. 

The Vibe 

Upon entering Pantry LA, the community is instantly greeted by vibrant artwork, chalkboard menu descriptors, and a retail space where knowledgeable staff and naturopaths are stationed to answer any and all biodynamic related questions.
