FAQ’s

  1. Do I have to be a Member to shop at the Co-op?

    No. Everyone is welcome to shop at the store.

  2. Why should I join the Co-op?

Members are eligible to run for a seat on the Board. All members are eligible to receive a patronage refund; any profit realized by the store after expenses may be returned to members.Members also have the benefit of knowing they’re supporting a local business that in turn supports local farmers and producers, bolstering the regional economy. And as a non-profit entity, the Co-op exists to serve its members, not to make a profit for a large corporation.

  4. How does the Co-op store differ from other supermarkets and natural food stores?

    The Mission of the Littleton Food Co-op includes supporting local food production, encouraging healthy life choices, and promoting environmental sustainability. While other markets focus primarily on the bottom line, the Co-op also works to enhance the local society and environment. Through our Partner of the Month program, the Co-op works with other local non-profit groups to raise funds and awareness for a variety of causes. The Co-op emphasizes fresh, local, organically grown foods, along with superior customer service from a knowledgeable staff. Because the Co-op is owned by our members, we provide what our members want, rather than what manufacturers want to sell.

  5. What is a cooperative?

    A cooperative is a member-owned, member-controlled business that operates for the mutual benefit of all members. Co-ops operate under common cooperative principles, which include:

    • Voluntary and open membership
    • Democratic member control
    • Member economic participation
    • Autonomy and independence
    • Education, training and information
    • Concern for community
    • Cooperation among cooperatives
  6. How do I become a member?

    You may purchase member shares by visiting our Membership page. Shares cost $25 each. At least four shares are required to vote on Co-op business. All members and subscribers (those with fewer than 4 shares) are eligible for patronage refund.
