Hope y’all are getting geared up for Spokes & Folks this Saturday! It’s looking to be a beautiful day for a community bike ride, and we’d love for you to join us!

We will be taking a beginner-friendly route led by BICAS, starting from the co-op and heading to beloved Himmel Park! After some snacks and picnicking we will head back to the co-op for more snacks, drinks, friends, and fun prizes! (But of course, you’ll be on wheels, so if you need to head elsewhere you’re golden! 🚲)

Plus, BICAS is providing a free Fix It station at the co-op beforehand so you can get small fixes & flats repaired & ride-ready! (*small fixes only, subject to mechanic time constraints)

RSVP for the event at the link in our bio! RSVPs are free, with a suggested donation of $10 to support BICAS. We will be accepting donations for BICAS at the co-op that day, as well as through their website always. 💕💪🚲

If you haven’t heard of BICAS, now’s your chance to connect with them and hear about the incredibly important things they do for our community!!

We’re celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day by highlighting the story of one of our favorite local suppliers, Ramona Farms! Ramona's American Indian Foods

If you haven’t tried tepary beans, you’re missing out on a delicious & fascinating heritage plant with a rich history in our region. Swipe to read how Ramona Button helped save the bavi, or tepary beans, from obscurity!

We’re proud to carry a wide selection of products from Ramona Farms- here’s just a few of our favorites. We are deeply grateful to share these products - they truly showcase the unique heritage of our region and of the O’dham community. 🧡🧡

Love our Co-op? Bring a friend! October is Co-op Month, the perfect time to introduce new folks to our store!

Sometimes, all it takes is a simple “You should check this place out!” to make someone feel welcome.

Every new shopper helps strengthen our store and build a stronger future for our Co-op. We want to be here for generations to come, and growing our community is an important part of making that happen.

Not everyone knows what a co-op is or how it works, and visiting for the first time can feel a little intimidating if you’re not sure what to expect.

A Few Things Worth Sharing…

🛒 What is a Co-op?
It means we’re community-owned. It’s a business model where we are owned equally by our owners, not one individual or corporation. Power to the many, not the few.

🛒 Everyone is Welcome!
You don’t need to be an owner to shop here. Everyone is welcome and you can join anytime if you choose.

🛒 We Accept EBT
You can use your benefits when you shop with us.

🛒 Free Parking
We offer free customer parking behind the store, with access through our East Entrance (between Hoff Ave. and 3rd Ave). We are also conveniently located right next to a Sun Link stop!

🛒 Interested in Ownership?
October is a great time! We’re hosting an Owner Drive all month. New owners receive a $10 welcome coupon, a reusable Co-op bag, and an entry to win a $100 gift card. Plus, ownership shares are fully refundable. Just ask a cashier for more info!

Find us at 412 North 4th Avenue in Tucson.

How much do we love our co-op?
Let us count the ways….

Food grown close to home.
Farmers we know by name.
Neighbors at the register.
Local makers on the shelves.

People over profit.
Planet over margins.
Power to the many, not the few.

And maybe our favorite part? It’s ours.

We own it equally.
We shape it collectively.
Together, we decide what’s next.

A co-op means community-owned.
And, that’s what makes us different.
Because good things happen when we all have a seat at the table.

❤️ ❤️ Happy Co-op Month! ❤️ ❤️

Find us at 412 North 4th Avenue. Not an owner? No problem! Everyone is welcome to shop at the co-op, ownership is never required. Stop by, check us out, and if you’re inspired, October is a great month to join. We’re offering new owners a $10 welcome coupon, a co-op reusable bag and an entry to win a $100 gift card!
