Thank you Malcolm & your amazing staff �

The light cellar is a place of pure light and love. The owners and team that make the light cellar are dedicated to a super high quality of life and are happy to help and share the light and love with everyone. I am inspired to be a part of this amazing community as I am also very interested in a healthy way of life and to help others with their health and well-being. As well as growing as an individual and helping others grow into their higher self. When ever I come into the Light cellar, I get an energetic wave of happiness and I am able to connect with the team and customers. I LOVE THE LIGHT CELLAR!!! ���

The Light Cellar is my home/office away from home/office. I can show up, be greeted warmly, nourish my body (and soul), meet a friend/client, not be rushed and come back every day for the same! The products are quality unmet by others of it's kind and the staff is really knowledgeable. I will continue to return time and again as I learn something new each time I visit...and I'm there a LOT!! Thank you Light Cellar!

The Light Cellar has a winning combination of a wide range of herbs, clean raw products and prepared foods - paired with a knowledgeable and friendly staff.



Most people in Calgary have no idea that The Light Cellar is actually the largest supplier of Superfoods in Canada. It's my first stop for a health ailment because guaranteed someone in there has either experienced it and/or can point me in the right direction.



Their workshops are excellent - and from chocolate making to chocolate eating - if you love chocolate like I do, then this is the place for you.



Do yourself a favour and take an afternoon to stop by this wonderful store in Bowness (and when you do be sure to grab a treat from the elixir bar)

Place is an absolute gem. There's no better place to go for the knowledge and expertise you'll want when dealing with food health . From fermentation to dried foods, this place will guide you to the proper foods your body wants and needs to survive.

It's also a great place to go to learn and to experience delicious beverages with ingredients you'll be surprised to learn taste so good.

Oh my ness! My eyes are wide for this little gem! Thank you for being in my reality! I am ever greatful to have found you!

My beacon of hope for long term health and wellness. I’ve never been so grateful to find quality products, information and people all in one place. Taking their Friendly Ferments class has helped me take back control of my health from the grips of autoimmune disease.

My Happy Place! ��

The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Love this place, so much more than just a 'store'. Great products, many of which you won't find anywhere else. I travel from central AB to come here for quite a few of my 'necessities'. Great energy and uplifting.... next time I'm trying the ant elixir!

Knowledgeable friendly staff and lots of cool gear and products, also educational program is excellent and very busy. Top notch business that I am happy to support.

I’ve been looking for Lady’s Mantle tea for ever. Finally a friend recommended this place and what a wonderful find it is. I found various herbal teas in store that I’ve had to order online before. Great quality and price.

It doesn't get any better then the Light Cellar...

Top notch Health Upgrades for the Modern Age...

From Products to Education, this place brings it all together as on of the best offerings of Nourishment in Canada.

I absolutely love this little gem! They have so many great products and the elixir menu is awesome :) Calgarians are lucky to have such a place in their city!

Best place in Calgary to pick up your Superfood supplies. They also have classes to educate you on how and why you should be using them. And the chocolate.....mmmmmm its heaven
