Mother’s Market was founded in 1978 by a passionate group of yogis who believed: health begins with what you eat.

The first Mother’s Market, a 2,500-square-foot space in Costa Mesa, became a hub for like-minded individuals seeking better food choices and a healthier lifestyle. People traveled from all over Southern California to experience this health oasis where happiness, organic, delicious foods and sustainability were front and center.
Fast forward to today, and Mother’s has grown into 11 locations across Southern California, but the heart of the brand remains the same: empowering people to live healthier lives through better food.
