The South Bronx Food Cooperative is a green shopping alternative to what is generally offered in
the Bronx. Founded and operated by committed local residents, the SBFC is dedicated to making
a difference in the community by working together to provide healthy and affordable food available
to all who want it.
Although we are currently seeking a retail location (check out the rest of site to see how you can
join/buy on-line or at a distribution center), the SBFC will carry a wide variety of products including
local, organic and conventionally grown produce; pasture-raised and grass-fed meat; free-range,
organic poultry; fair-traded chocolate and coffee; wild and farmed fish; supplements and vitamins;
vegetarian & vegan alternatives; bulk grains and spices; environmentally safe cleaning supplies
and much more. In addition, the coop will stock a selection of familiar and common supermarket
items making the SBFC a one-stop shopping destination.
As a member of the SBFC you will share ownership of the coop with fellow coop
members. You have a voice in the decision-making process and can participate in
planning and discussions of the organization's future.
Equally important, shoppers will know where their food choices come from. By becoming a
member you and your family not only have access to fresh foods at low prices, you will learn who
are our local farmers and vendors.
Ask yourself:
 | | Would you like to buy nutritious food for much less than you're spending now?
|
| | Would you like to know where your fruits and vegetables come from and how they are | | | grown?
|
| | Would you like a place where you and your family can have access to health screenings, | | | nutrition workshops and gain valuable job skills?
|
| | Would you like to have adult and child cooking classes with a chef that can teach you how | | | to prepare different foods?
|
| | Would you like to learn about and participate in the growth and direction of this dynamic | | | organization?
