Westporters Tara and Tony DiPippa, along with Newtown residents Cynthia and John Boccuzzi, have opened BD Provisions, a bulk food store with an emphasis on low and zero-waste packaging, at 125 South Main St. in Newtown. BD Provisions offers a selection of grains, snacks, chocolate, pastas, nuts, candy, and more in over 250 large barrels that customers can scoop themselves and pay for by the pound, with the option to buy as much or as little as they want. Also on offer are artisanal olive oils, vinegars, local honey, and maple syrups on tap with refillable glass bottles, as well as coffee beans roasted at the front of the store. Already named one of the favorite zero waste shops by MarthaStewart.com, BD Provisions looks forward to expanding via franchises in the United States and abroad.
