What began in 1972 as a community-based experiment in radical collaboration through grassroots food sourcing, distribution and sharing, the Isla Vista Food Cooperative has grown into a legitimate force in the local foods movement in Santa Barbara County and beyond.
Meet our featured co-op:
Grocery.coop
Grocery.coop is NCG's consumer-facing website—a place to find out more about what's in your food, where it comes from, where to find great food, how to prepare it, and a whole lot more!
Why NCG?
NCG helps unify food co-ops in order to optimize operational and marketing resources, strengthen purchasing power, and ultimately offer more value to food co-op shoppers everywhere.
