NEW YEAR, NEW BARE

At BARE Blends, our mission has always been to restore, refresh and revive the community by encouraging a return to our roots: by celebrating local produce, plant-based products and one another. As we head into a brand new year, we are even more committed to bringing healthy and delicious whole foods to our community. We know how hard it is to make good decisions and prioritize wellness and we want you to know we are here to make it easier for you. We have amazing franchises already open with more coming soon and we are ready to improve your life, one smoothie at a time.

When it comes to eating more mindfully, cleansing, trying a plant-based lifestyle, incorporating more whole foods into your diet or starting with something as simple as meatless Monday, BARE is here to help you start your journey. For assistance with all of these things (and more!), stop by a BARE location near you or email us back to learn more about how we can support your goals.

  • Happy New Year!
  • With love and smoothies, Annie & Jess.
