About The Company
We are a community-owned grocery store with two locations in Traverse City, MI. Everyone welcome! In 1973, a small group of pioneering people established a buying club to obtain fresh, wholesome food at fair prices. From that one back porch operation run solely by dedicated volunteers, we have evolved into a $26 million, two-store cooperative business serving the Traverse City community and beyond.
