History

Established in 1973.

ur co-op began as a food buying club in 1972 and opened a storefront of primarily bulk foods at 16th and P Streets in downtown Sacramento. In 1973, this buying club was incorporated as the Sacramento Natural Foods Cooperative, a Board of Directors was elected and the first paid employee was hired. With continued growth, the Co-op needed a larger space and in 1974 the store was moved to 2996 Freeport Boulevard, where it stayed for the next 15 years. In 1989, the Co-op moved to 1900 Alhambra Boulevard at the corner of S Street in midtown Sacramento. In making this move, the Co-op doubled its physical size and its employee count. The Co-op also added a fish, meat and poultry counter and wine and beer to its offerings. In recent years we have enhanced our gourmet food selection, including an excellent selection of specialty, artisan cheese and wine. Our Produce Department now sells organically grown fruits and vegetables exclusively. We have also added organic red meat to our product off
