Nature's Food Patch Market & Café

Nature's Food Patch, an organic and health food market, was founded in 1987 by Mr. Amort after his cancer diagnosis, leading him to adopt a macrobiotic lifestyle as a way to fight the disease. Motivated by his desire to help others improve their health, he purchased and revitalized the Clearwater Community Co-op, which had been in operation since 1976, and The Patch was born. Over the years, his passion for the natural foods movement has continued to inspire the community, and his children have preserved his legacy by focusing on better nutrition and holistic health. In 2018, the family expanded their mission by opening a second location in Downtown Dunedin, continuing to provide high-quality, organic products that promote healthier living.
