Shop and walk-out at Nourish + Bloom Food Market

Founders Jilea and Jamie Hemmings created a marketplace that allows shoppers to pick up their favorite grocer items and checkout literally when they walk out the door. Here’s how it all started. The Hemmings entered the food industry because they wanted to create more healthy diet options for their son, who was diagnosed with autism. This birthed their first plant-based product called Greenie Tots for kids, which is the first company to make all-natural frozen entrees for kids with a healthy meat-free twist.

Fast forward to an era of dangerous viruses and bacteria, many customers now prefer self-checkout and touchless experiences. The Hemmings recognized this need and created a shopping store experience called, Nourish + Bloom Market, that allow customers to download the N+B mobile app (coming soon), scan a QR code at entry, shop, and then walk out the store.

Nourish + Bloom is a market that offers a variety of produce, baked goods, meats, prepared meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner), diary and crafted items locally, as well as the everyday convenience items. The caveat is, no GMO’s or high fructose corn syrup products are allowed. Well, I don’t think we will miss those products much. Local brands are given the highest priority in the store to reduce their carbon footprint. The initial flagship store is located in Fayetteville, Georgia. Their goal is to expand Nourish + Bloom to multiple locations.

The Hemmings are also doing great things in the community and have teamed up with Microsoft, Coca-Cola and others to create STEM mentorship programs for underserved communities.

You can visit and shop at Nourish + Bloom @ 300 Trilith Pkwy Suite 250, Fayetteville, GA 30214.
