We always look to the year ahead with excitement and optimism, but this year we have just a few extra things to be excited about. In the midst of our celebrations, we look forward to connecting with you, our shoppers, and providing incredible products, thoughtful education, engaging events, and meaningful moments.
Whether you’re a shopper, Owner, or both, thank you for supporting Whole Foods Co-op – and we hope that you’ll join us in the fun year ahead!
It’s our 55th anniversary!
Whole Foods Co-op has been serving the Twin Ports community for 55 years. We are excited to share in the year ahead by looking back at the wonderful milestones and moments that have made us who we are today. Do you have a favorite memory of the Co-op? We’d love to hear it! Please take a moment to share it with us.

It’s the International Year of Cooperatives!
The United Nations General Assembly has declared 2025 as the International Year of Cooperatives. With the theme Cooperatives Build a Better World, we will endeavor to share the stories of co-ops that we carry here at Whole Foods Co-op that are making their communities – and the world – a better place.
We’re Hosting a National Conference for Cooperatives!
We look forward to welcoming over 350 leaders from co-ops around the country to Duluth in May. The Consumer Cooperative Management Association’s (CCMA) conference is an annual event convened by the University of Wisconsin’s Center for Cooperatives. The multi-day conference will include tours that highlight our local food economy and examples of local cooperation. It’s an honor to serve as the host for this event and we can’t wait to share the Northland with our peers from around the country.
Join the Fun!
While the CCMA conference is only for co-op professionals, we’re already gearing up for our Annual Owner Meeting later this year. We can’t wait to celebrate with you! Also, keep your eye out for upcoming events both in-store and out in the community. It’s going to be a great year at the Co-op! Follow us on social media or our weekly email blast to stay in the loop.
