You asked, we listened! Reimagine is now open one extra day each week - Thursday - making it 4 days a week that we'll be open in total.

We would love to be able to open 6 or even 7 days a week again, but the reality is that we don't have enough customers to make that financially viable at this point in time.

Please share this post to let more people know about our new opening day. Thank you!

Upon opening of our new London Thing Library, we will be hosting many workshops and other events in our new space! We are excited to host repair cafes and other similar workshops to help facilitate skill sharing. Repair cafes help teach people about the right to repair and what the right to repair means for them. 

There is a new partnership in town…one between Reimagine and Thames Region Ecological Association, with support from the City of London, Libro Credit Union, London Community Foundation, and SSHRC! This partnership has resulted in the London Thing Library, a brand-new space for Londoners to share and access equipment, tools, and other household items, while also helping the environment! Let’s talk more about London’s new Thing Library!

The Thing Library is coming! We have been dreaming and talking about this for a long time, and now it’s oh so close to being reality.

With the opening of the London Thing Library, Ontario’s newest thing library, some people wonder “why exactly do they matter?”. That is an excellent question that we plan to answer for you! Thing Libraries, sometimes also referred to as tool libraries, have began popping up more and more around the world.

Could you be our new General Manager? We’re looking for someone with grocery store experience and an entrepreneurial spirit, who has a flair for marketing, enjoys day-to-day operations and is ready to lead a team. 

You’ll bring the skills to grow the business with us, make it financially sustainable, and keep it serving Londoners - and the planet. You’re someone who is passionate about local, organic, plant-based food, great with people and also great with numbers. You work fast while also taking time for reflection, enjoy new challenges, and are hungry to make your mark. In short, you’re someone we can rely on, with the drive to go the extra mile.

In a small town just one hour from London, a valiant human rights struggle took place in the 1940s and 1950s. This sleepy little town, crippled by racism, would prove a vital part of the civil rights movement in our country. We think it is so important to know the history of our area, and certainly our country, and hope to share some history with you today that you may not already know. 

Take a tour of new products with Kara as she explains a bit more about some of the awesome new products we've brought into the store recently. Send us an email if you have suggestions of new products we can bring in. 

Before the holidays, we announced that we would be taking an extended winter break and then coming back with reduced hours in January. 

The store will reopen on Saturday, January 8th and moving forward will be open on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10 am - 6 pm. 

It’s exciting to have the back space of our building renovated and to be hosting holiday markets, with visions of more events to come. We are looking forward to more foot traffic and buzz around Reimagine Groceries with this new community event space. As we focus on building this part of the business, we’re looking for a partner to co-create the grocery store operations.

The Reimagine Holiday Market started as a vision to bring our community together. This included promoting small businesses and artisans in the London Community. Though this experience we got to meet and learn about people with amazing talents, passion, knowledge and artistry. Get to know them here!
