Feeding our community

As an organic, community-owned grocer, we believe everyone has the right to healthy, fresh food.

We approach food accessibility on many levels. We address current needs in the emergency food system through our grocery rescue program and with contributions to food banks and small farms using funds raised by PCC members, shoppers and staff. Through these long-standing programs, we provide immediate support to more than 40 organizations and family-owned farms.

In our stores, we carry a line of organic products available at a lower price point that still meets our standards, and we offer dozens of products in bulk. We identify weekly specials and discounted products as well and accept EBT across our locations.

We also look for ways to address larger, systemic issues related to food access and nutrition. We’re committed to listening, learning and growing with our community to build a food system grounded in dignity and driven by equity. To this end, we are constantly assessing, evolving and innovating our programs and advocating for food access at the policy level.

As we continue to grow, so too does our commitment to our community.

In our annual Co-op Purposes Report, we share with our members and shoppers the impact we’re having against our triple bottom line in our communities and beyond. After setting our first-ever science-backed, measurable social and environmental goals in 2017, we’re excited to announce what we were able to achieve together.
