A warm block theme built for food shops, farm stores, and organic markets. Works great with WooCommerce and the Site Editor.

== Description ==

Larder is for people who sell fresh goods. If you run a grocery store, a farmers market, an organic food shop, or anything in between, this theme was made with you in mind.

Everything is editable through the Site Editor. Pick your colors, swap out fonts, rearrange the homepage sections, all without touching code. It ships with a ready-to-go front page that includes a hero banner, product category cards, featured products, sale items, and new arrivals.

The theme plays well with WooCommerce. Product grids, cart, checkout, and mini cart all work out of the box. If you don't need a shop, it works fine as a blog or content site too.

Two style variations are included (Earth tones and Forest green) so you can change the entire look in one click. Fonts are locally hosted for privacy and speed.

Features:

* Full Site Editing with customizable templates, parts, and patterns.
* WooCommerce support: Product Collection, Cart, Checkout, Mini Cart.
* Lora and Source Sans 3 fonts, self-hosted for GDPR compliance and faster loads.
* Warm color palette that fits food, grocery, and organic store branding.
* Two style variations for quick redesigns.
* Homepage patterns: hero, categories, featured products, on sale, new arrivals, call to action.
* Mobile-friendly with a clean slide-in menu and full-screen search overlay.
* Accessible: visible focus states, screen reader text, reduced motion support.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `larder` folder to `wp-content/themes/`.
2. Activate the theme through the Appearance menu in WordPress.
3. Open the Site Editor to customize templates, colors, fonts, and patterns.
4. The homepage template is ready out of the box with hero, product categories, and product grids.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does this theme require WooCommerce? =
