GUILDERLAND — Bare Blends is moving to a new location at Stuyvesant Plaza, which it has called home for six years.

The women-owned, healthy foods store that offers smoothie bowls, salads, and fresh juice will move to the opposite side of the plaza to fill the suite between Blaze Pizza and The Pottery Place.

A reopening celebration is planned for early 2025.

Co-founders Annie Berdar and Jessica Fuller collaborated after Berdar earned degrees in both biochemistry and nutrition, according to a release from Stuyvesant Plaza.

Fuller founded The Hot Yoga Spot in 2010, and owns several fitness centers, according to the Bare Blends website.

Bare Blends launched in 2018 in a shared space with The Hot Yoga Spot as a vegan, dairy-free, and plant-based eatery. Its newest iteration will feature expanded offerings, including grain bowls, paninis, breakfast sandwiches, and soups.

In addition to Stuyvesant Plaza, Bare Blends now has locations elsewhere in New York, and also in Massachusetts, Colorado, and Florida.
