A Message From the General manager
I would like to thank you, our loyal customers and members, for your support during these challenging times. I understand you have choices in where you shop. That when you choose to spend your hard-earned dollars at MOCO, you do so out of the same commitment to community and in support of our local farmers and vendors that helped to create our food coop in the first place. MOCO is here to serve our community. As your local food coop, MOCO is not just another grocery store. We’re the local grocery store you can take ownership in. As the new General Manager, I’ve had the great pleasure of talking toMOCO is happy to announce that we now carry baked goods from Two Sons Bakehouse.

Product Spotlight
As most of you know we emphasize healthy, organic, fresh and locally produced products. By supporting our local growers, farms and producers, we can provide quality products to consumers, while also strengthening our local economy. We strive to promote products that are naturally produced and organic products raised in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.
Along with local products, we also carry many brand names that you know and love! Today we are focusing on three specific categories that can be harder to find in other local stores; gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian.
For those of you looking for options here is a sample of brands MOCO carries that you may be familiar with:
- Beyond Meat:
