Co-op Connection Business of the Month — FLORA

Located in the heart of downtown Middlebury, FLORA is proud to be the town’s only locally owned and operated cannabis dispensary. Founded by longtime residents Michael Sims and Dave Silberman, FLORA offers more than just quality cannabis—it provides a welcoming, community-focused space where visitors can explore thoughtfully curated, lab-tested Vermont products. We’re excited to feature FLORA as this month’s Co-op Connection featured business, where Middlebury Natural Foods Co-op members 10% off their purchase every day!                                                                                                                 

FLORA’s atmosphere is intentionally clean, calm, and inviting. Whether you’re new to cannabis or a seasoned consumer, the shop is designed to make everyone feel comfortable and informed.                                                                                                              

Dave Silberman talks to a customer about product offerings.

FLORA’s dedicated team of budtenders are the heart of the operation. Known for their deep knowledge and friendly approach, they’re always ready to help customers navigate their options—whether they’re looking to cannabis for sleep, pain relief, stress management, or recreational use. Customers who already know what they want can also place preorders online, to have their selections ready for fast checkout when they arrive at the store.

FLORA keeps things fresh with a rotating lineup of five to six new cannabis flower strains each week—there’s always something new to discover. Their aromatic bud bar lets visitors take in the full sensory experience of each strain. “Every week we put out 5–6 new strains,” says co-founder Dave Silberman. “We always keep the selection fresh and exciting.”

That same dedication to quality carries through to their pre-rolls. While many shops mass-produce joints that can linger on shelves, FLORA crafts theirs in small batches using high-quality flower, so customers can count on them always being fresh and flavorful.

Beyond flower, FLORA also offers a refined range of cannabis products including a large selection of edibles and beverages. One favorite among customers and staff is FLORA’s own line of low-dose edibles known as “Socials.” Socials are crafted with full-spectrum cannabis oil pressed from flower without the use of solvents, preserving naturally occurring terpenes for a richer experience. Many users find that full-spectrum products—containing a range of cannabinoids and terpenes—offer a more balanced, approachable effect than isolated THC. Other gummies in FLORA’s co-branded line-up include “Functionals” designed to address everyday complaints – from pain to insomnia. These gummies are vegan, gluten-free, and crafted without artificial flavors or colors, making them a popular and approachable option for a wide range of consumers.                                                                                                          

FLORA is deeply invested in curating the best of the best across every category, regularly testing new products to ensure customers have access to top-tier options. One recent standout: handcrafted chocolates from Stir the Pot Kitchen, made right here in Addison County by the original founder of Daily Chocolate in Vergennes. With premium ingredients and meticulous attention to detail, they’re a perfect example of FLORA’s thoughtful approach to product selection.

Handcarved pipes from Pipes by Jim

After opening, Silberman realized that no one in the area was selling pipes—people were driving all the way to Burlington just to buy glass. So FLORA expanded to include accessories, too. True to form, even these are carefully curated, from simple, affordable options to artisan pieces like the one-of-a-kind, hand-carved pipes from local woodworker Jim Cunningham of Pipes by Jim.

FLORA gave over $40,000 in Co-op Connection discounts in 2024, underscoring the store’s deep commitment to serving locals and supporting the Co-op. “Being part of the Co-op Connection Program gives back to the consumer, offers a discount, and supports the Co-op,” says Silberman. “It also signals that we stand for local—locally owned producers and the people of this community.”                                                                                                     

Whether you’re exploring cannabis for the first time or looking for a special gift, FLORA’s welcoming team is ready to help you find exactly what you need. Patrons must show a valid picture ID to verify they are at least 21. Stop by their downtown Middlebury location at 2 Park Street – and don’t forget to tell them we sent you!

Supporting the Northeast Organic Family Farm Partnership

In honor of Dairy Month, which is celebrated each June, we’re shining a bright Spotlight on the Northeast Organic Family Farm Partnership. In early January of 2022, the Northeast Organic Family Farm Partnership, a first-of-its-kind campaign in partnership with the Maine Organic Farming and Gardening Association (MOFGA), was created to help solve the crisis of disappearing organic family farms in our region.

The Partnership, a collaboration of farmers, processors, retailers, activists, and government agencies, invites consumers to pledge to purchase at least one-fourth of their weekly organic dairy purchases from brands that have committed to sourcing their dairy from Northeast organic family farmers. A central goal of the effort is to increase demand for dairy produced in our region, creating market stability to help save at-risk farms and build greater food system resilience for the future.

We are proud to announce that your Co-op has joined the Northeast Organic Family Farm Partnership. To secure the future of organic dairy farming in the northeast, we’re committed to purchasing organic dairy products from brands that source their milk from our region. We’re also encouraging member-owners and the community to become informed about the Partnership and take the pledge to purchase ¼ of your weekly dairy products from Brand Partners. When you commit to buying one-fourth of your weekly dairy items from the brands that support our region’s organic family farms, you become a proud Consumer Partner with all of these farmers. 

Why Does This Matter?

Family farms reconnect us to the land and each other. They provide our communities with beautiful open spaces, abundant wildlife habitats, and rural charm. We pick fruit in their fields and orchards and pet their cows at county fairs. Family farms remind us where our food comes from and connect us with the hands that feed us.

When you pledge to buy the products from our region’s organic family farmers, you are not just helping to keep these farms financially viable. You are supporting true environmental and health heroes. Organic farmers foster healthy soils, which are both a founding principle of organic production and key to fighting climate change. Vermont’s organic farms release fewer greenhouse gases than their conventional counterparts, protect our water and other natural resources, are more resilient to extreme weather events, sequester carbon through their management practices, promote biodiversity, and provide greater community food security. Moreover, you are helping to support a fairer, more stable agricultural market, which keeps thousands of small family farms in business and thriving. In fact, organic milk prices are traditionally more stable than the conventional dairy market, so organic farmers often have an easier job of covering production costs. That means they have a better chance of keeping the lights on at the farm and the cows out in the pasture, where they belong.

“The Northeast Organic Family Farm Partnership celebrates the fact that when it comes to supporting our region’s organic family farmers, it really does take a village,” said Gary Hirshberg, chair of the Partnership and co-founder of Stonyfield Organic. “Everyone has a stake in the long-term financial health of our region’s farms and farm families. The simple act of pledging to purchase one-quarter of dairy items from the brands, processors, and farms that support these family farmers, can help to ensure that farms remain healthy, vibrant, financially viable, and environmentally and climate-positive parts of the northeast region for generations to come.”

The decline in the number of small family farmers is unfortunately not a new story, as the United States, and especially the northeast, has seen drastic reductions in the number of both farms and acreage over the last decade. From 2012 to 2021 alone, Vermont has lost over 390 individual dairy farms as food production has largely been ceded away from small families, and into large, agri-business operations. However, organic family farmers are important contributors to a healthy environment and thriving rural life and are important players in the region’s food system.

The next time you are shopping in the dairy or cheese cases, look for the Northeast Organic Family Farm Seal to identify Partner Brands. When you see the seal, you can be confident that your purchase supports hard-working organic dairy farmers in the Northeast.  For more information on the campaign and to take the pledge, click here

This week, we’re thrilled to introduce Shelburne Farms to our Member Deal line-up! From May 28–June 3, Member-Owners receive 20% off these exceptional local cheeses—crafted just down the road on one of Vermont’s most iconic farms.

 

 

Nestled along the shores of Lake Champlain in Shelburne, Vermont, historic Shelburne Farms spans a breathtaking landscape of rolling pastures, forests, and pebbled beaches. Its stunning architecture and inviting spaces make it one of the most beautiful farms in New England –magical and inviting.

Shelburne Farms is a nonprofit organization dedicated to cultivating a conservation ethic for sustainable future through education. Rooted in regenerative agriculture, this working dairy farm is renowned for its world-class artisanal cheddar cheese. Since 1980, the farm has produced farmhouse cheddar using only raw milk from its own herd of purebred Brown Swiss cows. Free from rGBH, artificial flavors, colorings, and preservatives, their cheese reflects a deep commitment to quality.

Each year, the farm crafts around 140,000 pounds of cheddar. This work not only connects people to the source of their food but also strengthens local food systems and supports Shelburne Farms’ educational programs.

Here at Middlebury Natural Foods Co-op, Shelburne Farms Cheddars are a cornerstone of our local artisanal cheese case. From the delicate, creamy notes of their 6-month aged cheddar to the sharp sweetness of their 2-year, to the crumbly, herbaceous bite of the 3-year, there’s a flavor for every palate and every cheeseboard. Don’t miss this chance to stock up while supporting a farm that exemplifies sustainability, education, and excellence.

Learn more about Shelburne Farms and their programs by visiting their website. Better yet, plan a visit to explore this incredible conserved property and see their cheesemaking and regenerative farming practices in action!

Spotlight on Red Hen Baking Company

Our Member Deals Spotlight is beaming on Red Hen Baking Company! Member-owners can enjoy 20% off their full line of freshly baked breads from May 14-20. Read on to learn more about this wonderful local bakery that’s been turning out fresh organic bread 7 days a week for over 20 years!

 

History

The folks at Red Hen Baking Company are guided by a belief that pure, uncomplicated ingredients and the hands of skilled artisans are the building blocks for great food. Their bakery sprouted from humble beginnings with a staff of 8 on Route 100 in Duxbury, VT back in 1999. They were committed to using organic ingredients since the very beginning and became an established presence in the area’s many cooperative and independent food stores. Their bread was beginning to appear at more and more of the area’s finest restaurants and they became mainstays of the Montpelier and Waitsfield Farmers’ Markets. To this day, these venues still make up the core of their wholesale business.

After 8 years of hard work in Duxbury and a seasoned staff that had grown to over 20 employees (many of whom are still with the bakery today), they had the opportunity to move 5 miles down the road to the neighboring town of Middlesex. It was here that they established their new baking facility in a building constructed especially for their purposes with an attached café in a renovated building that housed the former Camp Meade Diner.

Their café has become known as a local destination and gathering place where people can enjoy not only the bread they’re so well known for, but also their increasingly lauded pastries, sandwiches, and soups. To supplement their own creations, the cafe also features beer, wine, and specialty food from near and far. Next time you’re cruising through Middlesex, be sure to stop in!

Although Red Hen has grown considerably since those early days in Duxbury, they remain dedicated to creating the very best food from the best possible ingredients. You can’t make great food without great flour (or potatoes or seeds or meal, as the case may be), so a great deal of time and energy is spent sourcing the very best of these items. In many cases, the folks at Red Hen are closely acquainted with the farmers and millers that are responsible for producing the raw materials used for baking their breads. In fact, over 90% of all the flour they use comes from two farmers within 150 miles of the bakery. Each year, 430,000 lbs of local wheat go into their breads!

They employ methods that are as old as bread making itself and these processes guide their days at the bakery. This method of slow fermentation produces a complexity of flavor, a chewy texture, helps the bread to keep longer, and even adds to its nutritive value. Each loaf is then formed by hand and baked in a hearth oven. The Red Hen family of breads runs the gamut from dense whole grain varieties to light and airy ciabatta and everything in between.

Giving Back

Like any good hen, the folks at Red Hen feel a responsibility to do what they can to nurture the community that has nurtured them. There is never a shortage of work to be done and there are so many good organizations doing that work, but each year their staff selects a few organizations that they would like to support. Last year they directed over $26,000 to the following organizations doing work both close to home and further afield:

Featured Co-op Connection Business – Green Mountain Adventures

Spring is finally here, and with it comes that familiar itch to plan your next Vermont adventure. Whether you’re dreaming of backcountry trails, mountain-fed rivers, or just a weekend escape close to home, Green Mountain Adventures—located right on Middlebury’s Main Street—is the place to start. They offer top-tier gear, guided outdoor experiences, and one of the best local summer camps around. Member-owners enjoy a 10% off their purchases year-round, and we’re thrilled to spotlight this local institution as April’s Co-op Connection featured business! 

A Family-Owned Business with Deep Roots

Green Mountain Adventures is co-owned by Steve and Marion Atocha, who first opened the business (originally called Middlebury Mountaineer) back in 1998 in a small space above the Storm Café on Mill Street. Since then, the shop has moved a few times—first to the old Ben & Jerry’s spot on Park Street, then a bit further up the street next to the Sheldon Museum—before finally landing, in 2017, at their current, sunny Main Street location. It’s the space they’d always hoped for: centrally located and easy to find, with a steady stream of locals and out-of-towners alike.

The Family

Steve and Marion Atocha co-own Green Mountain Adventures. On the store’s webpage, Steve is described as a father, a fly fishing enthusiast, and a certified American Canoe Association Kayaking Instructor. He spends his free time hiking for out-of-the-way fishing holes or backcountry skiing on the Lincoln Gap. Marion serves as a clothing buyer for the store, and divides her time between the shop and working full-time as a nurse in Bristol. An avid hiker, swimmer, and Nordic skier, Marion’s real passion is raising her three boys and working on her family farm. In true family business fashion, their boys pitch in as part of the Green Mountain Adventures team.

Guided Trips for All Experience Levels

For those who want a more hands-on introduction to Vermont’s outdoors, Green Mountain Adventures offers guided trips for fly fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, hiking, and even rock climbing. Whether you’re a beginner or someone looking to refine your skills, they can customize a full or half-day adventure that fits your goals. Guides are experienced, knowledgeable, and deeply familiar with the local terrain.

Unforgettable Summer Camps for Kids

Green Mountain Adventures also runs one of the most beloved summer day camps in the region. Now in its 26th season, the camp serves kids ages 6–15 and offers an immersive experience in the wild landscapes that surround us—from rivers and cliffs to wooded trails and glacial swimming holes. Campers might spend one day paddling, another hiking or biking, and another tubing or rock climbing, all led by experienced local guides.

Camp groups are intentionally small, with a low camper-to-guide ratio (max 6:1), and the culture is all about building confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging. As Steve puts it, “We encourage a ‘come as you are’ ethic where campers can be fully themselves, without external pressure to act or perform in a certain way.” Over the years, many campers have returned summer after summer, forming deep friendships and memories that stick.

 

Plan Your Visit

Green Mountain Adventures is more than just a gear shop—it’s a community hub for outdoor adventure. Whether you’re shopping for new equipment, booking a guided trip, or looking for a meaningful summer camp for your child, they’ve got you covered.

Don’t forget: Co-op member-owners receive 10% off year-round—just show your member card at checkout. Stop in this month to take advantage of the deal, explore what’s new, and start planning your next adventure.

Spotlight on Klinger’s Bakery

Our Member Deals Spotlight shines brightly this week on Klinger’s Bakery! From March 20 – 26th, member-owners can enjoy 20% off their full line of local fresh-baked artisan bread! Read on to learn more about this Burlington-based bakery and their time-honored baking traditions:

 

Rustic, Healthy, Hearty, Crusty, Chewy, Flavorful…
Just a few words overheard to describe the artisan breads of Klinger’s. Their hearth-baked breads were proudly brought to Vermont in 1993 by the Klingebiel families of Williston, Vermont and Salem, New York.

These flavorful, authentic European-style breads were developed by one of America’s premier artisan bakers. Their bakers have been thoroughly trained in the methods and subtleties of bread baking. The breads are made from starters which are allowed to develop over a thirty-hour period. Visit the bakery and watch their bread crafters at work. Amidst floured tables, you will see them mix the finest ingredients, hand shape loaves, and bake them with care in their French brick oven.

Klinger’s is proud to bring you the rustic, homemade taste of their signature artisan breads. Their goal is to produce breads with character and integrity, to make your mouth water with the aroma of loaves fresh from the oven, and to share the products of their labor with you again and again.

Spotlight on Krin’s Bakery

Nestled in the hills of Huntington, VT, Krin’s Bakery has been bringing people together with delicious, handcrafted treats since 2005 – and from February 6-12, Member-Owners can enjoy 20% off Krin’s full line of local confections at the Co-op!

 

 

Krin’s Bakery is run by artisan baker Krin Barberi. A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, her treats—like chewy cookies, cupcakes piled high with frosting, classic Italian biscotti, and chocolate-dipped coconut macaroons—are made with time-honored recipes and simple, fresh ingredients. Krin’s baked goods are perfect for every occasion—packed in a lunchbox, paired with coffee, or shared at a celebration.

Krin is dedicated to supporting Vermont’s local food system through her work as a baker. She sources ingredients from nearby farms, orchards, and local distributors, recognizing that these partnerships help sustain the small businesses that are vital to the region. Her passion for local food and community stems from her New England upbringing, where food was a way to bring people together. By choosing local whenever possible, Krin ensures that her bakery continues to support and celebrate the community that inspires her work.

 

Spotlight on Joe’s Kitchen

Are you craving the warmth and comfort of a nourishing, home-cooked soup but find yourself short on time? That’s where Joe’s Kitchen soups come in! This week, we’re excited to feature Joe’s Kitchen in our Member Deals Spotlight, with all their locally made, from-scratch soups available at 20% off for Member-Owners from January 23rd to 29th.

From Grandma’s Kitchen to Culinary Excellence

Joe Buley’s journey to founding Joe’s Kitchen at Screamin’ Ridge Farm began in his grandmother’s home in East Randolph, Vermont. He recalls her kitchen as a warm, bustling hub filled with family, friends, and the enticing aroma of a soup pot simmering on the stove. His grandmother’s cooking philosophy balanced flavor and economy, often using whatever ingredients were on hand to create hearty, delicious soups. The key to her creations? The fresh vegetables and herbs she harvested straight from her garden.

Joe’s mother carried on this tradition, teaching him the art of making great-tasting food with fresh, home-grown ingredients. These early lessons shaped Joe’s passion for cooking and laid the foundation for his future career.

Chef-Owner Joe Buley

A Culinary Journey

Joe’s culinary career took him far and wide. He trained at the prestigious École Supérieure de Cuisine Française in Paris (also known as École Ferrandi), where he was the only U.S. citizen in his class. After graduating, Joe honed his skills in culinary hotspots like Brooklyn, San Francisco, San Diego, and Austin before returning with his family to Vermont in 1999. Back home, he served as a chef-instructor at the New England Culinary Institute for nearly a decade.

During this time, Joe began growing his own food, inspired by memories of his grandmother’s garden. What started as a small operation with a single greenhouse and a walk-behind tractor evolved into Screamin’ Ridge Farm—a thriving business known for its winter spinach and a wide variety of summer crops. The farm’s produce was sold at the Montpelier Farmers Market and through seasonal CSA programs.

Bridging the Gap Between Farm and Table

As Joe connected with customers at farmers markets and through the CSA, he noticed a common challenge: people wanted to eat healthy meals but often lacked the time or inspiration to cook from scratch. This realization sparked the idea for Joe’s Kitchen at Screamin’ Ridge Farm, where he could combine his passion for growing ingredients and cooking them into flavorful, ready-to-eat foods.

Joe’s soups are crafted with integrity and a commitment to using local ingredients. When sourcing items not grown on his own farm, Joe partners with neighboring small farms in the Montpelier area. This approach not only supports Vermont’s working landscape but also ensures that his soups have the authentic, fresh flavors reminiscent of his grandmother’s cooking—all without the need for added sugars or excessive salt.

A Co-op Favorite

At the Co-op, we’re proud to offer a rotating selection of Joe’s Kitchen soups, showcasing the best of Vermont’s seasonal produce. From hearty stews to creamy bisques, there’s a flavor for everyone. Which one will you try next?

Rooted in the family traditions passed down from his grandmother’s kitchen, and combining locally sourced ingredients with time-honored cooking methods, Joe’s Kitchen soups bring together the quality and essence of home-cooked meals with the convenience that busy lives demand.

Co-op Member-Owners, don’t miss your chance to stock up and save 20% on Joe’s Kitchen soups from January 23rd to 29th!

Every day they prepare fresh, organic juices and vegan meals with one mission: to make nutritious, delicious, and sustainable food accessible to everyone.

“Every day we wake up passionate in our belief that healthful food should be accessible, taste delicious, look beautiful, help you feel amazing, and have as little negative impact on the environment as possible.” Says Sheri. “Every decision we make here is with those philosophies in mind.”

Sheri and David Bedard

 

Keeping it Local

Juice Amour sources their ingredients locally whenever possible, partnering with organic farmers to ensure their menu reflects the best Vermont has to offer. Their dedication to purchasing from local farms reflects their dedication to environmental sustainability, and their desire to spend their dollars where they have the greatest positive impact on the community – with their neighbors. 

 

Sustainable Packaging

Sheri and David believe that juice just tastes better from a glass – and that it’s better for you, too. Juice Amour avoids using single-use plastics, opting instead for a “milk bottle” model for their container. Customers pay a $.50 deposit for the bottle that contains their beverage, which is refundable upon return of the glass jar. Jars are commercially washed and sanitized, and put back into rotation to be used again. 

Commitment to Organic

Organic is more than a label at Juice Amour—it’s a core value. By prioritizing organic farming, they ensure their food is free from harmful chemicals, is grown in a way that supports soil health, and of course, tastes exceptional. No wonder their juices are bursting with flavor!

So Much to Love

In addition to a bounty of fresh organic, raw fruit and veggie juice options, Juice Amour also offers guilt-free raw smoothies, chia puddings, overnight oats, raw nut milk, fresh vegan salads, tacos, soups, and more! Click here to see their full menu.

If you’re looking for vegan-friendly catering for your next event, you’ll be thrilled to hear that Juice Amour offers a tasty catering menu to make your guests swoon.
