BULK FOODS
With over 450 choices, shopping your Bulk Department is a simple way to reduce post-consumer waste, save money, eliminate excess packaging, buy fresh quality foods and only in the quantities you need. Your Bulk Department can inspire meal time or snack time with an abundant selection of competitively priced organic and/or local grains, flours, beans, rice, pastas, granolas, nuts, nut butters, dried fruits, specialty coffee & teas, candy, snacks and more. We also carry bulk liquid items including local maple syrup, honey, and oils, as well as molasses, soaps, shampoos, and household cleaners.
We have paper and plastic bags for use and plastic or glass containers for sale, though we encourage you to bring in your own clean, reusable containers from home to help save on waste.
“We all make a difference! The Bulk Department offers close to 70 Locally Grown or Produced products from over 12 Minnesota Local companies and almost 60 Fair Trade products, and
over 320 organic bulk products.”
With over 152 varieties of culinary and medicinal bulk Herbs & Spices, we have got you covered for everything from All-purpose seasoning to Xanthan gum. We have sourced some of the highest quality herbs and spices around the world thanks to Frontier Co-op.
If we don’t carry it we can source almost anything, just ask to talk to or leave a message for the buyer.
