Reusable Containers are Back!
The Co-op is reintroducing reusable containers to our Bulk Department—with a twist! At the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we moved our Bulk Department to exclusively single-use containers, in the interest of protecting our customers and staff. We have a new program that ensures there are clean, sanitized, reusable jars available for our shoppers: a reusable jar deposit program.
How It Works:
The Co-op has purchased new 16 oz. and 32 oz. glass jars for use in this program.
The deposit on these jars is $2 each.
Return the jars on a future Co-op trip to get your deposit back.
We will wash and sanitize the jars and make them available for use again!
We know that this isn’t quite the same as using your own favorite jars and containers, but we hope that this will serve as a safe, affordable, zero-waste way of storing the fantastic foods available in the Co-op’s Bulk Section.
(And yes, Bulk Jars are available to use for Curbside Bulk Purchases!)
