Macomb Food Co-op

07/06/2025

A garden.
A shared meal.
A good conversation.
Some of life’s richest moments are the small ones.

Today’s a good day to pause, take a breath, and remember what matters.
We’re grateful for every hand that helps tend the soil, stock the fridge, ring up the groceries, or share a kind word.
The Co-op is built on those small, steady moments of community.

If you believe in this kind of local goodness and want to help it grow, we’ve recently made it easier to give back with a tax-deductible donation — even a little can make a difference. 💚

Happy Thursday, Macomb!
We’re open today from 12 noon – 6 PM, and our fridges are full of fresh, local food just in time for the holiday weekend 🌱🧀🥚🥦

Christian enjoys cooking with fresh ingredients from our local growers — especially the onions — and says one of his favorite parts of volunteering is engaging with customers.

His favorite quote is...
💬 “The good Lord forged us all out of iron. Then He turns up the heat to forge some of us into steel.”

We appreciate Christian’s hard work and cheerful presence — and we know the Co-op wouldn’t be the same without volunteers like him!

✨ If you’ve been looking for a way to make a difference, we’d love to have you join us. Whether you have a couple of hours a month or a few each week, you can help grow something great with your neighbors.

🥦🧡 Colorful and powerful — broccoli and cauliflower are packed with fiber, vitamin C, and sulfur-rich compounds that help detox and reduce inflammation. 💪

Grab some while it’s fresh! Got more than you can eat? Chop, blanch, cool, and freeze in a single layer — perfect for stir-fries, soups, and roasting later.

✨ Open Tuesday 12–6 PM!
📍211 S. MacArthur St.
Everyone is welcome at the Macomb Food Co-op!

Bonus fun fact: Both vegetables also contain kaempferol and indole-3-carbinol, which are being studied for their potential role in cancer prevention.
