Sustainable practices

Working hands from Rabbit Fields Farm in Everson, WA

At Sno-Isle Food Co-op our department buyers number one priority is in sourcing local and sustainable products. Our goal is to ensure the on-going preservation and betterment of the Earth. We favorably consider biodiversity in farming, products packed in compostable materials, and companies that recycle limited resources.

Organic

Top priority at SIFC is organic foods. A fundamental part of Sno-Isle’s Principles, we strive to ensure that the products on our shelves are certified organic. Some exceptions can be made if a company can prove that they are in the midst of becoming certified, that their product is created using organic ingredients or, that they employ organic and sustainable practices, but cannot afford the hefty cost of certification.

Non-Gmo

Non-GMO certification is increasingly important to the health and well being of ourselves and our planet. If the product contains any of the Top Ten GMO crops, they MUST be certified Non-GMO or be in the process of gaining said certification.

Banana Cards

Every time a child 12 and under comes to the Co-op they receive a free banana. These bananas are very special. A portion of each box we purchase goes to GROW Organics. Since 2005, GROW Organics has provided nearly $2 million for educational programs, dental exams, vision care and clean water in the banana growing regions of Mexico and Ecuador. Without the support of GROW, many people in banana growing regions would not have access to necessary health care and educational opportunities.
