About Our Co-op

History of the Co-op

The Silver City Food Co-op originated in 1974 and some of the founding members are still active in the Co-op today. In the late

1980’s, the Co-op moved the store to its current location and

bought the building a few years later. Over the years, the store has

been remodeled several times to meet our growing needs.
