About Us
We source from trusted local farms and producers, prioritizing quality, sustainability, and freshness—so every cup and every bite reflects the best of our region.
As a cooperative, we’re owned and guided by our members—not outside investors. Every decision we make is rooted in what’s best for our community.
We prioritize fresh, local, and responsibly sourced products—balancing quality, sustainability, and accessibility for everyone who shops with us.
Part of our purpose is to provide local jobs and ensure our staff feel valued, educated, and empowered. We also cover 100% of full-time staff's monthly medical plan costs in addition to vision, dental, and life insurance benefits.
BECOMING A CO-OP MEMBER
We’re owned by over 8,000 local households —not outside investors. Our decisions are guided by the needs of our members and our local community.
We prioritize sourcing from local farmers, makers, and producers to strengthen our local food system and boost our local economy.
We commit, as a cooperative, to support a food system for both people and the planet—through responsible sourcing, food rescue, and responsible disposal or recycling options.
We aim to create a space that is accessible, respectful, and reflective of the community that we serve. Anyone can shop here—and anyone can become a member.
We focus on fresh, high-quality, and responsibly sourced products—balancing health, sustainability, and accessibility across our shelves.
We operate with transparency—from how we source products to how we make decisions—so our community can shop with confidence.
The Davis Food Co-op occupies land that belongs to three federally recognized Patwin tribes: Cachil DeHe Band of Wintun Indians of the Colusa Indian Community, Kletsel Dehe Wintun Nation, and Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation.
As we constantly work towards our Cooperative Principles Concern for the Community, and Education, Training, and Information, we have donated to local organizations that support this land acknowledgment such as the Center for Land Based Learning, Cache Creek Conservatory and Yolo Basin Foundation, and will continue to do so. We know there is much work to be done to provide the space for Indigenous cultural conservation and education in our region.
We invite you to learn more about whose land you are on here: native-land.ca.
