All are welcome at the Belfast Co-op, a community owned health food store and deli/cafe located in scenic downtown Belfast, Maine since 1976. The Belfast Co-operative Store is a membership owned and controlled retail outlet for whole natural foods and other goods and provisions. We strive to offer a wide selection of products organically produced and locally sourced whenever available, at reasonable prices, to support healthy lifestyle choices for both our members and the general public. Our intent is to be a resource for information concerning health, nutrition, and the source of our products, as well as for community topics and other related issues.

The grocery department at the Co-op is really bursting at the seams. We strive to offer as wide a variety of items available in any grocery store, though we pride ourselves on offering as many locally and organically produced items as we can. We stock a huge selection of "specialty" items for a variety of dietary needs, from gluten and dairy-free items to vegan and vegetarian goods. Looking for that hard to find ethnic ingredient? The Co-op has a full aisle of Asian, Indian, Thai and Mexican foods for your cooking adventures.

As part of our mission we make it a priority to support local organic and natural farmers. Our produce department reflects that commitment. We have, in season, a large selection of local fruits and vegetables.

There is a meat and cheese section in the Co-op that has a variety of local and international cheeses. We have free-range and organic poultry products, organically raised beef products and our own hand crafted sausages from naturally raised animals.

Buying foods in bulk is for the economy minded, since the prices are almost always better than packaged items, and one can buy exactly how much one needs. Customers can buy everything from beans and grains to granola and snacks. Buying in bulk can also cut down on a lot of unnecessary packaging, which not only saves money, but also some of the earth's precious resources. 

Feel free to stop in and enjoy friendly service, good healthy food, and a wide range of wonderful products for yourself and your family.
