At Taos Pharmacy we believe that the health of the individual is affected by the health of the community, including its economic status. We look for ways that we can help the local economy. We staff our pharmacy to provide better customer service thus creating more jobs. Our "Taos Pharmacy Gives Back" program supports local non-profit organizations with monthly donations. We also provide an outlet for local products. We proudly announce that we carry products from Taos County Economic Development Corporation's Taos Food Center.
We have fry bread mix and blue corn fry bread mix from Taos Pueblo's Tiwa Kitchen. Now it is easy to prepare your own fry bread!
We have a variety of local jams and jellies. We carry Muy Cool red chile jelly, green chile jelly, blueberry jam, and raspberry jam. We have peach jam and apricot jam from Tequila Farm and strawberry-rhubarb jam from Three Angel Farm.
We have snack foods as well like Muy Cool's green chile dip mix and chipolte dip mix, Tequila Farm's Chimayo red chile popcorn, jalapeño popcorn and piñon brittle. For an interesting twist, try Three Angel Farm's Maca hot chocolate drink mix.
These make interesting local Christmas gifts. Buy a few for an unusual gift basket!
These products join our other local food products. We have La Ultima salsas, Questa honey, Bluebird Herb Farm teas and oils, Ranch O Casados chiles, spices, atole, chaquegue, posole, Spanish peas, and panocha. Our Dove Creek pinto beans are the best!
We also carry local herb products. We stock Taos Herb Company herbs, extracts and popular Yerba de la Negrita hair care. We have Artemesia herbal remedies. We have popular remedios by Rio Grande Herb Company including Osha root cough syrup with wild cherry bark extract, Aceite Mexicano and Aceite Indio. We carry Sore No More, formerly known as Sombra, which is an excellent liniment for sore muscles.
We invite you to help us support local businesses by shopping for local products at Taos Pharmacy! We feel that the growth of small local businesses is New Mexico's best hope for economic development and we are committed to helping out. SUPPORT TAOS, BUY TAOS PRODUCTS!
