Community Owned & Not-For-Profit
We’re proud to provide quality food to our local community. Certified organic fruit and veg, and produce grown locally in the Blue Mountains. We stock everything you need to nourish your family and take care of your home – from natural cleaning products, to biodynamic dairy. We’re a not-for-profit food co-operative established in 1981 and owned by over 2,200 members. We’re run by a team of 25 paid staff, assisted by our valuable volunteers, and overseen by a board of directors. Everyone can shop here and anyone can be a member. You can buy as much or as little as you like, and reduce waste by bringing and re-using your own bags, jars and containers. Together we seek to support local farmers, and connect and inspire our vibrant community through donations, education and enrichment programs. We are open 7 days a week, located right in the heart of Katoomba.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the Blue Mountains, the Darug and Gundungurra peoples, upon whose land the Co-op stands. We acknowledge the deep care of, and connection to, country that sits at the heart of Aboriginal culture and we seek to build and nurture our community, and care for the land and rivers, with this long and significant history in mind. We pay our deep respects to elders past and present, and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.
