Mountain Lakes Organic Co-op is a local co-operative for buying organic fruits, vegetables, dairy and other products at below supermarket prices. We have weekly, biweekly and monthly pickups in Mountain Lakes, Rockaway, Madison, and Denville. Find out more about our pickup sites on the Sites page. We also deliver to Bergen, Essex, Hudson and Morris Counties.
During the growing season, the vegetables are grown in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York States. During the winter and spring we source from as close as possible within the United States, except bananas and periodic tropicals. We always try to purchase the more locally grown produce over that from further away. For example, the citrus comes from Florida before California. For an idea of what may be in the baskets at a given time of year visit our Harvest Seasons and Availability chart.
Our baskets are well rounded with leafy greens, seasonal salad vegetables, cooking vegetables, and a nice variety of seasonal fruits and berries. The quality of the produce is a matter of pride, and our prices are below supermarket prices for comparable items.
Please keep in touch with us through our Facebook and Instagram page. We post recipes, describe the more unusual produce, post actions we can take to secure a less toxic environment, and we also post the latest Co-op happenings.
