Community Food Co-op of Utah
Community Food Co-op of Utah
Stretch your dollar AND support your community!
We all EAT! And we should do it well! However, many of us have seen our grocery bills skyrocket. We are paying so much more for the same foods we’ve been buying for a long time. Complicate that with our desires to eat quality, locally grown, healthy foods, while supporting our local businesses and charitable food pantries like Crossroads. For these reasons and many others, EVERYONE should take part of the Community Food Co-op of Utah headed by the
Crossroads Urban Center.
You can buy quality, healthy food (fresh fruit, vegetables, staple items and frozen meat) for up to 50% off retail. This is possible through collective purchasing. The food is ordered in mass quantities for very low prices. “By participating, you are sustaining a project that makes it possible for anyone to stretch their budgets, eat more healthily, and be more deliberate, thoughtful consumers.” Plus it’s easy! At the beginning of the month, order the shares of food you want. Then, simply pick it up at your designated site within your community toward the end of the month. Order each month or whenever you desire.
“My experience for June was awesome. I printed the form at home, mailed it in, got a reminder phone call, did my pick up in 5 minutes (there is a one hour window on Saturday AMs). The food quality was excellent.” - Marci Hall
