Locally Farmed

We work closely with many local farms and strive to increase local purchasing yearly.

Most produce, and floral offerings are locally sourced, either grown and harvested in Vermont or within a 60-mile radius of the Co-op.

We offer 25 top-selling items at guaranteed and everyday low prices. These include bananas, carrots, apples, greens, and cucumbers and are part of a program called "Co-op Basics."

We avoid plastic wrap and Styrofoam whenever possible in our packaging.

Our Commitment

  • Offer produce from local farmers whenever possible.
  • Offer a variety of organic and conventional fruits, vegetables, and flowers.
  • Support Local and Local 60 farmers and producers whenever possible.
  • Keep our pricing competitive with other grocery stores in our local area so our products are accessible at all income levels.

Spotlight on Produce

The Produce department at the Brattleboro Food Co-op has been the gateway to the rest of the store ever since we moved into the new building back in 2012. The Co-op offers the best customer service from our distinguished and knowledgeable Produce team every hour the store is open. We are all more than happy to share ideas and recipes with you or help you sample something delicious. We carry everything from asparagus to yucca root, with an emphasis on local and regional producers.
Back when I started working here in 1995 we were working with a very small group of local vendors. As time went on we were able to include more local farmers in the mix. Today we work with more than thirty local farmers and producers! Some of the original farms I’ve worked with since I started at the Co-op are still here today, for example, High Meadows Farm in Putney, VT, and Harlow Farm in Westminster. The Co-op has also seen some local farms grow dramatically over the course of time, like Deep Meadow Farm in Ascutney, VT, or Picadilly Farm in Winchester, NH. During peak season, 99% of our greens are locally grown, and during apple season we can carry as many as sixty varieties of apples to enjoy from Scott Farm Orchard in Dummerston, VT and Champlain Orchards in Shoreham, VT. And we continue to add new growers as well—for example, Nomad Farm in Rockingham, VT, which provides us with fresh herbs. I enjoy the interaction that I have with our local vendors and am glad to help them continue to succeed.
