Placerville Food Co-op

Co ops are the way to go for healthier choices for food, and other products. The prices are comparable in alot of cases, especially since everything u buy at big chain grocery stores these days are sky high! All the produce is mostly local and organic! They have delicious sandwiches, pre made and to order, a smoothy and coffee bar, soups, salads and snacks! And they accept EBT! I love giving my daughter healthier choices for eating! She loves the bulk bins!

Love how small this place is, yet it had everything I needed. I think all stores should be this size. Everyone was very nice and helpful.

Nice staff and excellent selections. Atom was the cashier and very helpful. Made up a picnic lunch for good cost = great value. Would recommend this over the grocery any day. Oh, and two else chargers and located right next to the car wash. Perfect.

1/10/2019: Alright, alright! "Ms. Bumbling Around London UK" wasn't advantageous at the very end of my trip due to the following reasons: 1. I contracted walking pneumonia from a Bloke riding Bus #205 to Paddington Station (The Bloke disembarked at Marylebone Hospital's ER-DOH!) on the way to Heathrow International Airport.2. At the TSA FRISKING AREA located at Heathrow International Airport: My checked-in Fliek luggage, Tumi handcarry, and Pacsafe Metro Backpack were rifled, rummaged through by the TSA Agents! I searched for my shopping ID Cards in my wallet, backpack, and Tumi handcarry- - -GONE! Waaaah!!!!! I tried going back to the TSA BUT, the TSA Agents wouldn't allow me retrieving my ID Cards! As a result of losing my ID Cards, a chaotic fiasco ensued upon arriving home . . . I couldn't receive my Co-Op 10% Discount after I filled my shopping cart full of organic groceries due to two mishaps:1. Losing my Co-Op Membership at LHR didn't help at all2. My phone numbers were transposed incorrectly via Placerville Co-Op's database for their cash registers despite, paying $300.00 for my Co-Op Membership FeeDOH! Cashier, Sera relayed a message to Manager, Victoria who sent me an E-Mail message on 1/11/2019 stating she'd rectify my 10% discount conundrum and send me a replacement ID Card! Waaaah~Sera called me a couple of hours later stating the Co-Op authorized giving me a 10% refund so, stop by and pick up your refund . . . WHOA~So Awesome!WAAAAAH~Thank you so very much for rectifying my lost ID Card conundrum by refunding my 10% discount I should have received on 1/10/2019 and soon, mailing me a new Co-Op ID Card as well!

Who would have thunk it that little ole Placerville has a food co-op? But they do and it is quite impressive. Well anyway, I was impressed on my first visit. I have been to the downtown Sacramento and Davis food co-ops. So on comparison to those...I was impressed. Right off the bat, I noticed that the parking lot has covered parking with solar panels. How green is that!? Plus the building itself has solar panels. Great!The inside footprint is compact but stocks quite a lot of inventory. They have a salad bar, deli area for made to order food item and fresh pressed juices, organic produce section, bulk foods-grains/nuts/legumes/herbs/spices/teas, snacks, bread, cereals, herbal supplements, homeopathic medicine, personal hygiene products, and makeup...and so much more. I was looking for a particular homeopathic product. The staff helped me search for the product on the shelf and in the back stock. They didn't find it. They even offered to call me back the following day after checking with their manager. Awesome customer service. Great follow through. Friendly bunch.

In a town like Placerville, I wasn't expecting to find this co-op. I've definitely been on the healthier side of eating these days, and haven't stepped foot into any of the larger grocery chains for awhile. But since we were staying in Placerville for a couple nights, I thought I might have to give up some of that healthy eating. Lo and behold... the Placerville Food Co-op!!!! Organic fruits, vegetables, kombucha on tap (and special kombucha from well known brands), gluten free snacks/frozen foods, oat milk, non-dairy ice cream, organic dog foods, food + fresh pressed juiced bar... oh my heavens, I was in love. We even found gluten free brownies and dairy free chocolates from well known out of state brands. And well-priced. Not to mention, we asked for recommendations on gluten free friendly restaurants and the store clerk came back with a list of 15 restaurants! Was not expecting that. Please support this co-op if you are ever in the town of Placerville. Definitely a hidden gem.

What a cool little store. I worked in a major supermarket all of my adult life and thoroughly enjoyed this gem. Produce kind of skimpy and some great prices, others not so much. The sandwiches were fantastic and a good deal. Will be great for those little day excursions for the ice chest. Nice little selection of craft beer cans I saw and some great cheese selections. Loved the variety of quick grab and go deli foods.

Friendly staff but it's way to overpriced. For two steaks and crackers it was 80 dollars!

I love their cold foods and absolutely love their hot foods. I get so sad in the mornings because i always tend to miss. Their hot foods. I wish they had more space for more veggie varieties but for the limited space they have I'm not complaining. The workers are always so kind, welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. I greatly appreciate their wide variety of herbs, supplements and holistic items too!

I just got a bit worried about the temps in the food cases, take a look at the health inspections.
