At the Co-op, you’ll find a colorful array and diverse selection of beautiful, fresh and delicious fruits and veggies all year long. We take great pride in knowing our farmers by name. How do we define what is local?

Arugula
Called “rocket” in some countries, these little green pleasantly peppery and bright leaves are sure to send your taste buds into orbit. Toss with a bit of fresh lemon juice and EVOO and then pile onto a pizza.
Broccoli
Why the king of the Brassicas? Because the tops are called crowns, with tightly closed flower buds reminiscent of a ’fro that’d give Bob Ross’ hairdo a run for its money. The crown’s where most of the flavor is, but don’t ditch the stalks! They’re fab in slaw, or peeled and cut for dippers.
Brussels Sprouts
They grow on a stalk, and with all the ways to prepare them, it might as well be a magic wand. Smash and roast to crispy perfection, or shave thinly for a fresh salad heavy on the crunch and color, then dolled up with maple syrup and bacon.
