Ben & Jerry’s Boycott
In April 2018, the Co-op's Board of Directors voted to support a request from Co-op members to stop selling Ben & Jerry's, in honor of Organic Consumers Association's campaign to convince Ben & Jerry's to go 100% organic.
The Co-op will no longer order Ben & Jerry's and has brought similar products to our stores that more closely align with our Purchasing Policy and our GMO Policy.
