arstephia Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We are eating a lot of "whole foods" "trader joes" type foods, having gone to limited sugar, etc. I also live in the middle of no where with no "Whole Foods" in my state, and with Trader Joes 1-1/2 hours away. Are there any organic/whole food type coops or sites online that I can buy and have non-perishables shipped to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrganicAnn Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 There are places you can buy food in bulk on-line. I don't think they are coops. I would just google for each specific item. Where you buy your grains, might not be the same place you buy your household products. You probably won't for one site for everything.

Soror Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We order through Azure and actually we now have a drop point here, we live in 'the country' as well the nearest TJs is 2 hrs away. At first we drove 3.5 hrs to the nearest drop, now it is 15 min away! You should check to see if they have one somewhat close to you. For the year or so when we had to drive so far I had friends and we took turns going every few months and we would stock up each time. UNFI also has co-ops all over the place. Azure does ship but not all items- like refrigerated and frozen items- it is much cheaper on shipping if you have a drop close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 You can contact UNFI and see if there's a buying club in your area. UNFI.com Quail Cove Farms is another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still have to drive 2 1/2 hours to my nerest drop off. Luckily, there are 2 families..so we take turns. But it is still worth it to me...we don't have any other health food stores within 2-3 hours of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
