Know Thy Food

this coop has extremely high standards for its purchases. all the food we have obtained through this coop has been of very high quality, fresh, pure, and as local as possible. best yet, the prices are at --or just above-- wholesale prices. the portland green parenting food coop has allowed our family to eat 100% organic, mostly local, and better-quality in general. while group buying always requires some flexibility, we now have affordable sources for food that was previously only for special occasions: raw milk, organic staple foods, organic cranberries for thanksgiving dinner, grass-fed meat, bulk organic and local produce for canning -- and even seafood! -- while maintaining the same food budget. plus, the foodies on the online forum are always there with new ideas and helpful hints. beats the grocery store hands-down!
