Data from: (if we've garbled it, blame us not them)

Coop Directory Service: The Coop Directory Service is an online source of information about natural food co-ops.
Food Co-op Initiative: FCI aims to increase the number, success and sustainability of new food cooperatives delivering access to healthy food in diverse communities across the United States.

Sitka Food Co-Op

Meet the neighbors:

"At this stage in our development we are much more than a glorified buying club, but not quite the standard “brick and mortar” operational food cooperative that we aspire to become.
We ARE incorporated as a food cooperative and now serve over 140 households, bring an average of 3.5 tons of food per month into town, and we are on track to do well over $200,000 worth of sales/purchases by the end of this year.
The purposes of the Sitka Food Co-op are to:
a. Create a community-based, member-owned buying service; b. Make available wholesome natural and organic foods and products as inexpensively as possible;
c. Support and encourage local growing of fresh organic foods;
d. Purchase and purvey, whenever feasible, the goods or services of local and regional growers and producers;
e. Serve as a center for activities and services which otherwise enrich the life of the community."
