GIVE! Round Up Proceeds

The Co-op supports local organizations dedicated to growing a healthy community. Through small donations from our shoppers, we make significant contributions annually, benefiting non-sectarian, non-partisan 501(c) organizations and local food producers that aim to improve food access, environmental stewardship, equity and diversity, and the local food economy.
