Overview
The Putney Food Co-op is a community-owned marketplace and delicatessen offering a diverse selection of quality products. It was founded in 1941 and is committed to local farmers and producers.
History
The Putney Food Co-op was founded in 1941 when fuel shortages due to World War II made it hard to obtain certain grocery items. A group of Putney citizens led by Carol Brown formed the Co-op according to the Cooperative Principles. The cash raised from selling member shares was used to rent a storefront (purchased in 1944). In 1992, the Co-op ownership voted to move the store from its original site on Kimball Hill to its present location on Route 5 and Carol Brown Way.
