Who we are
Go Vita Taree & Forster are both proudly owned and operated by Steph & Blue Johansson. We started our journey as organic farmers after leaving Sydney in 1999. Our permaculture farm was a perfect home to raise our son Pat. In 2002 we decided to open a wholefood and organic store in Taree. This gave us an outlet to sell our certified organic produce locally and we named our shop Worth Eating Organics. We were definitely a little ahead of the times and we are forever grateful for the support we received. Many of these people are still our friends and customers 20 years later. In 2005 we added health supplements to our offering and joined with the Go Vita group. Then in 2006 we branched out to open our store in Forster. There have been a few relocations into bigger premises along the way, and our businesses have evolved into what they are today. We love what we do and more importantly we believe in what we do. We only employ local staff, who also believe in what we do. This enables us to offer an authentic service that can genuinely enhance the health journey of our valued customers.
