I went to the store on Clark St for Tallow chips . They discontinued the tallow chips . Too expensive. I loved the place 🤩

Love that this is one of only 2 co-ops in the city (and this one takes the cake, if you ask me). The staff are incredibly kind, the produce is intentionally sourced (local and organic whenever possible) and they make a commitment to telling the stories of the people who produce the items they sell.
