Medford Food Co-op

Small, but mighty! Friendly service, central location restaurant on-site. It’s not cheap, but they have free food scraps behind the store. Buy many dry goods in bulk and bring your glass containers to refill.

(Update below) Great food, great staff. But if you want to purchase deli food to eat on the go, be prepared to eat your potato salad or other deli food with your fingers. They don’t have available utensils to use or buy. They are already super expensive compared to other stores that offer similar organic, healthy foods. I feel like the increased price should earn me the benefit of eating without getting potato salad underneath my fingernails. :P Update: The below response to my feedback indicates that you believe that I was not capable of asking for a utensil. I did ask and the checker offered me one from under the register. The manager then walked up and reprimanded the employee for offering it to me and put it back. I then asked the manager if I was supposed to eat it with my hands, and he said “yes” and walked away. The utensil didn’t look like a disposable one, so I understand not wanting to hand it out. But the whole scenario was weird. I felt bad for the employee who was trying to help.

Probably the best employees ever. Everyone is so nice. The store is always clean, rarely busy, and if you need help, it's not more than a few steps away. Medford Co Op is tiny, but they do well with the size. And that deli is just... perfection. It's virtually impossible to find lunch under $10 anywhere, but you can still do it here.

You can't go wrong here. Excellent produce. Immaculate store. Employees are well informed and more than willing to help you with your needs. I will be a customer til the day I leave this earth. A

Great pal e, great selection, friendly staff and fairly reasonable prices. This store has so many specialized products for special dietary needs and those who prefer to eat healthier and prefers no GMO or non-organic foods. I love the whole cream milk! Reminds me of drinking farm fresh milk from the cow. My favorite! The store is always stocked well with fresh items and the staff all are trained and have knowledge in their specific department like the homeopathic and natural medicine. Great place to visit and shop!
