At Breadroot Natural Foods Co-op, we put local first. Whenever a product meets our standards—free from artificial ingredients, antibiotics, hormones, animal testing, or harmful additives—we source it right from our own backyard. You’ll find local products in nearly every aisle, from fresh produce and South Dakota-raised meats and cheeses to wellness items crafted right here in our community. Want to know how local products make it onto our shelves? Keep scrolling to dive into our onboarding process.
STEP ONE: GET CONNECTED WITH US
The first step is to reach out! You can chat with someone in-store, shoot us an email, or give us a phone call. Our team will get you connected with the right department manager to head on to step two.
STEP TWO: TELL US ABOUT YOUR OPERATION
Once you’re connected with the right department, give us all the details! We will provide a Vendor Interest Form for you to fill out that digs into the details of your operation.
STEP THREE: WALK US THROUGH YOUR FARM
For departments like produce, we will usually request a site visit. If we choose to carry your product in the store, our Produce Manager will contact you and discuss your farm and availability.
