Don't know why I'm the first to review this site, but here goes. Very fair prices, service is top notch, and wonderful dairy selection. This is actually the first coop that I've had the pleasure to shop at because I am from Florida, and there are no co-ops there. So this is quite an unusual experience for me.

Pros: I really love the fact that you can actually get real bottled milk there, and farm fresh eggs(yes, there are actually such things as green eggs). The people who volunteer their time there(yes every employee there volunteer their time there and are always very cheerful and helpful)told me the story of how each and every egg that is laid by the chickens and ducks is almost like a fingerprint, just a very cool story. Staff is always very accomodating and pleasant. Only met one employee who seemed like she was working there for the employee discount and it was quite evident. Other than that, the rest of the staff is great.

Cons: Some of the produce is a little expensive, so some of it spoils. But, overall the prices are very fair. No other cons.
