The Whole Foods in OKC - Have you you been there? How is it? Close to the Metro? (Edmond: organic, stores)

Any firsthand accounts would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's very nice, just like all Whole Foods and right in the middle of town.

Does Whole Foods OKC sell wine? I know no other grocery store does.

Unfortunately no. The laws here are very antiquated. Grocery stores can only sell beer with 3.2% or less ABV. Anything else has to be purchased from a liquor store.

If you want wine, bchris02 is correct. However, there are some great wine places in town. If you are moving to the middle of town, I would recommend Broadway Wine Merchants.

Welcome

Sprouts is just as good in many ways and is a lot less money

So random...but I will likely be moving to OKC soon from a large metropolitan area and I'm really into healthy food...so to anyone who has been to this Whole Foods in OKC

a) Is there a bulk section? (bulk nuts, beans, grains, flours, nut butters, etc.)
b) Is the produce selection extensive?
c) Ok this is super specific haha...but do they have a lot of nut butters? (like peanut/almond butter)

I sound like a total freak, I know

Also, since I'm assuming many of you are also into eating healthy, local, etc...what are some other good up-scale food stores in the area? Any farmers' market recommendations?

Sprouts, Native Roots, and Akins are the organic/health food options. Uptown Grocery in Edmond and Crest in S OKC have also went far to compete with the new organic stores.

I think you should look at Urban Agrarian. Probably right up your alley:
