Our History

Since 1919, Cambria’s historic Soto’s Market has been the favored local food and meat market. In January 2016 four new owners reopened it as Soto’s True Earth Market, a lovely natural foods market. True Earth Market preserves the history of the “Soto” name yet implements a fresh and organic twist, what we like to call veggies with meat on the side.
