New Life Food Club is an organic food buying club located in the greater Dayton, Ohio area. We are organized like a food co-op and get together monthly to buy healthy food in wholesale quantities at low cost. We share the work of sorting and unpacking on delivery day. Our members range from growing families to baby boomers

The Club has many families with special dietary needs or who are trying allergen elimination diets. We understand how fustrating it is to find those grocery items and keep to a budget. Many of the items you may consider as specialty are regularly ordered through the club. We also share advice and recipes as we strive to keep our families healthy. We ask if you have a life threating allergy that you do not buy bulk items so you are assure of no cross contamination issues.

We purchase frozen, refrigerated and dry goods directly from United Natural Foods Inc. as well as health and household supplies from Frontier Natural Products. We also order local organic eggs, meat and seasonal organic produce. We do not have access to fresh produce organic year round.

If you prefer organic or natural items and/or spend a lot of time and money at the local health food store; and if you can spare a couple of hours a month to help out, we can offer you a better selection of products and save you some money!

We work on a rotating four week delivery schedule.
Week 1: Submit orders through the Internet
Week 2: Attend Order Adjustment Meeting
Monday 7-8pm
Week 3: Assist on Delivery Day
Monday Mornings br> Week 4: Rest and enjoy.
