MFC Departments
Joining is good for the community
and it’s good for you, too.
Produce
Offering the best in organic, local, and seasonal produce.
-
The Co-op considers local to be from the Upper Peninsula and works diligently with local family farms to source fresh, nutrient dense produce. Most regional, national, and international crops sourced from Co-op Partners Warehouse (CPW) in Minneapolis are certified organic and, when available, fair trade. From staple items like crisp greens and fair-trade bananas to specialty items like locally grown mushrooms and exotic citrus, the MFC is the place to shop for fresh produce.
Meat & Seafood
Fresh, quality protein for every meal.
-
We carry a range of products to meet the needs of every budget. You will find many options in our Meat & Seafood coolers & freezers – local and regional offerings, certified humanely raised, grass-fed, and organic. Our MFC branded products are cut, ground or blended in-house and created with care to make dinnertime easy.
Beer & Wine
Both local and global options for everyone at your table.
-
You’ll find our coolers stocked with quality beer crafted right here in Marquette, just blocks from our Co-op. We also have a great mix of other regional, national, and global offerings in every style, from drinkable lagers to full-bodied IPAs and fruity sours. If wine is your drink of choice, we provide a wide selection made from organically grown grapes. You’ll find a perfect pairing for your meal at any price range. We also carry seltzers, canned cocktails, and non-alcoholic and gluten-free beer.
