The place is getting better with time. I have been going to the store for the past 17 years. It has been hit or miss in the past and as of recent, things seem to be more consistent in the quality of their products and their staff. The staff in the past was also hit or miss.

Pittsboro is so lucky to have a food co-op. Don't sleep on sustainable local businesses. Go check out their amazing local produce and fair trade gifts! The bread and baked goods are amazing!!!
