Local Eats

We are creating this place in our website for Local Partners to have their own page. Thus, each of these posts will have a variety of information, links to their websites, online articles, and even a few have a short film produced by Co-op staff in 2017. It will take us some time to have the full list of nearly 200 producers, so keep checking back as it will grow!

Local Partners – website links & distance from the Co-op
Local Partners – PDF alphabetized.

Of note: if you are a Local Partner and you are ready to have your page here, let us know!
