We've been serving Ukiah since 1976, that's 43 years! Ukiah is where we're from and who we are. We're dedicated to fostering practices that will help our community flourish - which means carrying only the most environmentally responsible products we can find and investing in our community. Literally.
In 2019 we donated $12,000 from our Grants and Donations fund to local non-profits. Beyond that, we're dedicated to cultivating a culture of people who appreciate farmers and real food. Together, we're doing our part to nourish the place we call home.

OUR COMMITMENT
In addition to supporting our community in a variety of ways, Ukiah Natural Foods works to reduce waste, create living wage jobs, and embrace energy saving technologies and ideas. We know that in order for a place to grow and stay well, everyone must do their part. We try to lead by example and invite everyone in Ukiah to do the same!
LOCAL & NON-GMO
A healthy food system requires strong, local, small scale farms and ranches. Mendocino County boasts family operations that have been in business for generations, AND new farms supplying a variety of produce, dairy, and meat to the Co-op, farmers markets and local CSA.
COMMUNITY INVESTMENT
Community Grants & Donations applications are now available! Deadline for submission is Friday, January 31. Download the application here: Community Grants & Donations
The Co-op's commitment to a healthy community is reflected in our annual initiatives, including Give Back to Schools Week and Community Grants & Donations. Give Back to Schools Week takes place in September 2020.
Do you know of a local nonprofit that could benefit from our Change for Change program? Each month the Co-op's Espresso & Juice bar donates tips to a local non-profit.
