Good Earth Food Co-op

This Co-op has been around for 40ish years, and keeps growing. They just opened a small salad bar to accompany their soups, hot-bar, grab-n-go cooler, and baked goods. They also usually have good coffee, available in air-pots. The soups are often excellent, and usually you'll see a vegan, vegetarian, and meat option. Often there are a number of vegan options for grab-n-go sandwiches, but sometimes none. Today I had a seasoned Tempeh half-wrap, and a cup of yummy veggie soup with well balanced broth; kind of peppery and vinegary, called Dragon's Delight. The grocery section is excellent, and prices make sense for a small town co-op so far from the metro. The buyers have done a great job sourcing everything carefully, according to some pretty legit standards. If you're into it, I think the in-house vegan baked goods are the best anywhere. Usually it's scones, muffins, cookies, and cupcakes, and sometimes there's a seasonal item or banana bread.

The co op is great, wide variety of fair trade, sustainable foods and products. Fruits and veggies are fresh. The hot food section and deli is great, a little spendy but worth it. I haven't found a reason to go to the regular grocery store in years! If you are a local becoming a member saves you money!!

I shop at the food Co-op for everything. They even have a hot foods area where they serve awesome soups, some vegan, some vegetarian, and some just for the omnivores.

This place was vital to our trek across the northern plains during the winter. We found all the mock meats, bread, and soup needed to make lunches for the next few days on a road trip. The prices were what one would expect from a health food store.
