Our community extends well beyond the walls of the Co-op. Each month,we shine the spotlight on a new group of local partners to help share their stories and celebrate their role in our community.

Featured Vendor: Red Door Bakery

Red Door Bakery is a small, family owned and operated bakery in Marshfield, Vermont. They pride themselves in never using any ingredients containing GMOs and sourcing locally as much as possible for their fresh, homemade bread, pies, granola, cookies and bars. Read their story here.

Give Change to Support the Holiday Grocery Pack

For the past 15 years, Hunger Mountain Co-op has supported local organizations and area schools by donating grocery bags filled with nutritious food through our Holiday Grocery Pack program.  During November and December, anytime you check-out at the Co-op, you can choose to Give Change by rounding up your total to the nearest dollar. All of the change collected in those two months will go towards the Holiday Grocery Pack.  Additionally, remember to bring your reusable bag when shopping at the Co-op. For every bag, basket, or box used in place of a paper bag, the Co-op will donate five cents to the Montpelier Food Pantry. Those nickels add up! During the past two years, our shoppers have collectively raised over $28,000 for the food pantry. Read more about the Holiday Grocery Pack here. 

Bag that Bag to Help a Neighbor in Need
