Earth Day is just around the corner. While we love Earth Day at the Co-op, the Earth deserves to be celebrated all year! Shopping bulk is one way you can reduce your packaging waste and support our planet, year-round.
If you’re using the following products or similar ones, consider switching to the same product in our bulk section. These five are bestsellers among Co-op shoppers.
Café Carmelita
Tony’s Coffee
Smooth and delicious, this locally roasted coffee is a timeless blend of cocoa and caramel. It also is certified organic, Fair Trade Certified, bird friendly, and shade grown. Skip the disposable bag and use a jar or canister for your coffee beans instead.
White Jasmine Rice
Lundberg Family Farms
Lundberg Family Farms uses regenerative, organic practices to reduce the environmental footprint of high-demand crops such as rice. Their jasmine rice is fluffy with a mild, floral taste. It’s the perfect staple, pairing well with dishes from around the world.
Fruit & Nut Granola
Erin Baker’s
Loaded with walnuts, almonds, cranberries, raisins, and toasted coconut, this local granola is full of flavor. It’s also Non-GMO Project Verified and plant based. Eat it by the handful, over yogurt, or with your favorite milk for an easy, low-waste breakfast.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
napa valley naturals
Did you know olive oil is best stored in glass? This prevents a change in taste or smell due to oxidation. Shop organic olive oil in the bulk section with a glass jar, or even refill a previous bottle of oil. This cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil is a staple in many households.
Tea Tree Triple Threat Shampoo & Conditioner

Reduce packaging waste in your body care products, too! At the Co-op, we carry an array of body care products in bulk. The Tea Tree Triple Threat line is a favorite among customers. It’s color-safe, vegan, and conditions while it clarifies your hair.
