Rosewood Market + Deli - Columbia, SC

Employment Type : Full-Time

In 1972, Basil Garzia and a group of long-haired, peace-loving, music-playing, natural-food-eating hippies opened The Basil Pot, one of Columbia?s first vegetarian restaurants. They believed in living in harmony with nature and leaving the world a little better than they found it. Today, Rosewood Market is a natural neighborhood grocery store that sticks to those solid roots and continues to innovate and grow each year. We serve delicious food and promote a lifestyle of health and sustainability to our community so that they can continue to live healthy and happy lives.
