Plainfield Co-op is on the move –
Together we can!
• Offer so much more than a grocery store…
• Better serve the needs of our neighbors…
• Expand the cooperative spirit throughout our community…
• And invest in the next 50 years of the Plainfield Co-op!
To learn about the benefits to our community, the details about financing and operations, and how you can be a part of our move:

Your support, by making a loan or a donation, is an investment in your community, supports local jobs, and provides access to grocery items and fresh food in our community.
Note: You don’t have to be a member to lend or give to the Co-op!
Only $23,500 to go!
Through generous gifts and loans, we have so far raised $476,500 toward our $500,000 goal for our move!

In the Heart of Plainfield Village
We love our members, but everyone is welcome to shop with us! Whether you’re looking for fresh produce, dairy, affordable bulk products, or household items, you’ll find what you need on our shelves. We also have an extensive selection of medicinal and kitchen herbs; a carefully selected collection of affordable beers, wines and hard ciders; health supplements; and personal care products. We accept SNAP benefits.
Plainfield Co-op is a community-owned and operated food cooperative offering a full line of groceries. Everything on our shelves is always as local as possible. Our mission to provide the community with the most healthful food choices means that our focus is on organic, but we also offer selected conventional products that are more affordable.
While we welcome all shoppers, our members are closest to our hearts! So we do everything we can to make sure membership is affordable for everyone. Please check out our membership page to find out how you can become more involved in working with us to provide food for people instead of profit!
