In nearby Mt. Pleasant, the GreenTree Cooperative Grocery has been selling organic food long before it became fashionable! Last year, the organization celebrated a milestone of $1 million in sales annually and this year they're celebrating their 40th year.
GreenTree operates a grocery store, stocked with local, organic foods, at 214 N. Franklin Street in Mt. Pleasant. They specialize in selling "local, organic, fair trade, allergen free options." In addition to produce, they also carry fresh meat, environmentally-friendly cleaning products and even snacks for your pets! Anyone can shop at their store, but becoming a member of the co-op has additional benefits, such special sales, a store discount, a newsletter and more. The co-op currently has twelve employees and 760 owners.
For more information about GreenTree, visit their website or give them a call at 989.772.3321. They're open seven days a week, from 9am-8pm. It's hard to think of a better way to "Live Green!"
