Bringing a Community-Owned Grocery Store to Grand Rapids, MN.
Join 1380+ local residents building a better way to shop - fresh, local, and owned by the community.
What is Free Range Food Co-op?
A start-up food cooperative of over 1,380 owners and growing every day since 2016. We’re building a grocery store from the ground up, owned by the people of Grand Rapids and Itasca County.
Our Mission: Free Range Food Co-op is a cooperatively-owned grocery store committed to community well-being through access to local, wholesome, organic foods and goods.
More Than “Just” a Grocery Store
Become an Owner
Ownership means more than shopping — it means having a voice. As an owner, you help shape the store, support local food systems, and invest in your community.
- Vote in co-op decisions
- Support local farms and businesses
- Invest in your local food system
- Be part of something built by the community
