Mission

The mission of the Missoula Community  Food Co-op is to operate a member-run food cooperative that provides and promotes affordable access to local and healthful food while creating a vibrant forum for broadening community awareness and fostering collective creativity. Our model embodies a participatory and democratic business structure that operates for the benefit of its members, the community and the earth.

Vision

The Missoula Community Cooperative (Co-op) is a member run and collectively managed food cooperative inspired and driven by the active participation of our members. The Co-op operates as a model for economic, social and environmental justice and sustainability that builds partnerships with local farmers and producers and provides access to healthy, affordable and local foods. The Co-op is a community resource; a place to gather, exchange ideas and to learn through classes and workshops. It is a forum for discussion and a catalyst for action; we advocate for and are responsive to the greater needs of the Missoula community.
