Lassen's Health Foods

In 1971, Hilmar and Oda Lassen opened the doors to their 1st natural food and vitamin store. 1971 was around the time when health food was in the beginnings of its' 1st big trend' Wheat germ, peace, love and tofu were making their way into the lives of many flower kids. But 1971, for Oda and Hilmar, was not a time to jump in on a trend, this was not there way at all. On the contrary, Oda and Hilmar simply had a desire to supply the community they lived in, a place where they could come and find wholesome, low-processed foods for the families in the town they chose to make home.
