249542 Sat May 13 17:01:39 -0700 2006 7 19 Outer Boroughs 0 1327083 Organic Forever just opened on Austin Street, after months of problems with the building contractor. It's a great store, probably the only place in Forest Hills where you can find acai juice, frozen organic mangos, dried bulk foods, organic mahi-mahi and Ethnic Gourmet frozen entrees under one roof. (The only thing I didn't find that appetizing was the prepared foods counter) Personally, I find it much more inviting than the crowded, narrow-aisled, rude-patron-filled Natural.

You're absolutely correct about the rude patron filled Natural.

The frozen foods and bulk dried foods are in the back. Yeah, Natural is nuts... so much pushing, etc. I think it's because the aisles are so narrow, everyone is in each other's way. Organic Forever is much smaller but overall a much more pleasant food shopping experience. Sat May 13 23:40:09 -0700 2006 1327084 0 Kerry 3 1327169 Another thumbs up for this store. Ver clean and well laid out. Lets hope it stays awhile. I also know the owner of the building, who kept telling me it was opening a few months ago. Mon May 15 14:04:49 -0700 2006 1327101 0 Larry 4 1327173 My hope exactly... in a neighborhood of Johnny Rockets, TGIFridays and pathetic pseudo-Italian hasbeen restaurants, it's nice to see a great organic store. I only hope that the residents support it. The kind-of-mediocre health-food store on QB near 68th Road has managed to survive for years, so I'm hopeful.

Sat May 13 19:13:58 -0700 2006 1327083 0 tigerwoman 2 1327090 I don't know about the prices, but I can see Organic Forever right out my window, from Gerard Towers. I haven't been in there, they just opened a few days ago, but Organic Forever is right next to the Bann Thai Restaurant, Past Barnes & Noble, Annie Sez, toward Yellowstone Boulevard.
