As I browsed through the snack shelves this week, I discovered something new and interesting: Norwegian Baked Knekkebrød, a vegan, wheat & nut-free crispbread produced in a small facility in Brooklyn.

Did you know? The majority of the whole coffee beans coffee sold at the Co-op comes from Equal Exchange, a democratic worker cooperative.

The Co-op’s long-standing connections with meat and poultry producers mean anyone shopping at the store has access to suppliers that ensure better conditions not just for the animals that you consume but also for the people that work in the facilities that process meat and poultry.

It’s winter. The wind is blowing, the skies are overcast, people are coughing, sneezing, chilled and stressed. Maybe their digestion is a bit off. Now, imagine a hot, steaming cup of aromatic tea layered with distinct, robust flavors, a tea that is both pleasing to the palate and crafted to support wellness during the winter season.
