Company Description
Linden Hills Coop
* Provides and promotes healthful choices for its members and shoppers
* Provides, uses, and promotes earth-friendly, sustainable products
* Encourages activism on sustainability, health and nutrition-related issues
* Builds community within Linden Hills and neighboring communities.
The idea for a natural foods cooperative in the Linden Hills neighborhood of Minneapolis’s Lakes district was first considered in 1975, by a small group of neighborhood residents interested in having access to organic, local and natural food. After a series of planning meetings and initial fundraising, a small space was secured and the new co-op opened on March 12, 1976. At the end of Linden Hills Co-op’s first fiscal year, $101.69 in profit was divided among the twenty-four founding members.
In the thirty years since then, Linden Hills Co-op has moved and expanded its offerings three times while remaining the neighborhood’s primary grocer—“big enough to meet your needs; small enough to meet your neighbors.” With a full service deli, great selection of locally made and locally raised foods, many choices for different dietary needs, and an inviting outdoor courtyard, the co-op serves as a community gathering place—with groceries.
