Just Label It! Our Right to Know about GMO

People's Food Co-op of Kalamazoo has joined many other organizations and food co-ops across the country to push for clear labeling of genetically engineered food ingredients. Take a look at the video for a silly and simplified kick off to the campaign.

We Couldn't Have Done it Without You

There is much to be grateful for as we look back on 2011. The board, staff, and owner/shoppers of People's Food Co-op made a dream come true for Kalamazoo in 2011. Building a new home and moving a business can never be easy, but it has been a labor of love for so many of us that the result exudes caring for community. Congratulations to us all.
