Where do you get your groceries & household items?

One of two standard grocery stores. There isn't a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, or even Costco within a reasonable distance of me. I don't sweat it and it's worked just fine so far.0

Luckily we have a PCC nearby. (a NW coop that I find much more awesome than Whole foods).
My favorite place is farmers markets honestly.
But have no problem at my every day krogers/fred meyer.0 -
Kroger for household items and the occasional ice cream treat (Turkey Hill has an awesome natural recipe ice cream - cream, eggs, milk, sugar, chocolate; for ice cream, beats the hell out of the other stuff available).
Green Bean Delivery, through hubby's work, for produce, dairy, eggs, bison, bacon, and other random edibles and weekly staples (his work gets a discount for the number of people at one delivery location, they co-op with local farms for local, organic, and/or sustainably grown stuff). They're one of the few carriers of a local creamery that does mostly A2 (they're phasing out A1 cows from their farms, but it's an ongoing process), non-homogenized, low-heat pasturized dairy (closest I can get to raw in my state without getting into a legally grey area), and the only one that I've found that carries their sour cream (creme fraiche, actually) and yogurt (6% butterfat! and comes in plain!).
My semi-local (hour and a half away) Amish community butcher for beef, pork, and chicken (we buy in bulk every couple of months).0 -
I shop at a co-op Sno-Isle, Whole Foods, TJ's, Fred Meyer, local farms, Tropical Traditions, and Amazon.0

That creamery sounds amazing!0 -
I don't have Kroger, or Trader Joes. Just whole foods, Safeway, Costco, Times & Foodland (which are just average stores). Though we do have farmers markets & I'm sure there are co-ops.0

Oh and we also have a place called down to earth... but It's all vegetarian :yawn:0

If you're in the Northeast US, you might be able to get some. They're called Snowville Creamery. Their main hubs are Ohio and the DC area.

The closest stores to me are a Kroger and an International Farmers Market. I shop at both, but usually get my produce and fish from the Farmer's Market. They have a larger selection of stuff and tend to be cheaper on most things than Kroger. We also have a Whole Foods, Fresh Market and Easy Way ... all of which are farther away so I don't really go to them unless I'm in those areas of town.0
