The Co-op is 40 years old this year!

From 1970 to 2010—and we're still going strong. Watch for news throughout the year on celebrating 40 years of serving our community. Send your stories and photos of the early Co-op days to Laura Steiger.

Welcome to the Community Food Co-op, Bellingham’s natural cooperative grocer. What began in 1970 in Fairhaven as a single 900-square-foot store with fewer than 10 items has grown to a two-store 12,000-member-strong natural grocer. We encourage you to participate by shopping, joining, and building and supporting a sustainable, vibrant community.

You’ll find organic produce, meat and seafood, wine, an exciting deli, an espresso bar, great housewares and fun stuff, bulk items, natural and organic grocery items, baked goods, dairy, and supplements and wellness products. Welcome and enjoy.

Our second store in the Cordata neighborhood of Bellingham opened January 2009. This store is a great addition to the neighborhood. Convenient access by bus, bike, or Bakerview Ave., shoppers enjoy this beautiful store. Co-op members and neighbors on the north end of Whatcom County and BC can now enjoy an abundance of fresh, natural, and locally produced healthy food. Stop by to see what all the excitement is about.
