"used to love the Co-Op. However, over the past few months I have heard from numerous employees that the place that preaches their values for local produce and vitalizing community & local farms has started outsourcing frozen produce from California. The entire purpose of the Co-Op is to support our local community and the lovely land and farms we have around us. If the Co-Op has starting cutting the quality of their ingredients without being open and transparent to customers about it, I find that to be a betrayal to the people who are members and shop at a place anticipating that their money is benefiting local sources. Also, cut the price is you’re using frozen produce instead of the fresh local produce that was used prior. I think the community also deserves to know that the CoOp organization is firing or punishing employees who are arguing against these changes - I have personally heard of at least 3 people who have experienced this. Protect our community, support local farms."

"This is the best place to shop! There Beer selection is incredible and their beer guy Chris is the best in the game hands down. So knowledgeable and friendly. And the selection is insane. Keep it up team"

"La Fermière is my favorite yogurt company. They are a family-owned French yogurt company that has been around since 1952. They recently added a line of French Desserts. The Boise Co-op in Boise, is the only place in Southern Idaho that is carrying them. They have three of the five flavors. I’ve tried all three. I started with the one that I expected to be my least favorite, CRÈME CARAMEL, because I don’t particularly care for caramel. Surprise! Surprise! It turned out to be my favorite of three flavors. The Vanilla and Chocolate flavors are good, but they don’t begin to compare to the Caramel flavor. La Fermière’s CRÈME CARAMEL is one of the best things I’ve eaten in 2024! French Crème Caramel is a vanilla custard that’s baked on top of a layer of caramelized sugar, served upside down with a caramel sauce pouring over the sides. It’s somewhat similar to Flan in flavor, but closer to a crème brûlée in texture. La Fermière’s Crème Caramel incorporates the caramelized sugar/caramel, into the vanilla custard. The Boise Co-op in Boise also has the most flavors of La Fermière yogurt. The second best location is the Boise Co-op in Meridian, which has yogurt, but none of the desserts. Highly Recommended!!! P.S. I recommend calling the Boise Co-op to make sure this product is in stock before you go to pick some up."

"This is a fabulous local owner and operated close to down town. They have a pretty good selection of beers, wines, fresh vegetables and fruits. They carry some items only found here. You can come in and get a sandwich or cup of soup and when the weather is good they have a nice patio area. Come support a local business because when you by from them the money turns over approximately 7 times in OUR COMMUNITY."

"So much praise!!! The Co-op is a fantastic place to have cater your next event. They have vegan and gluten free options, and great trays to select from. Dylan was absolutely amazing! He took such interest in helping us select our trays and personally made sure the order was what we expected. You can really tell people like what they are doing at the Boise North End Co-op. Catering is absolutely affordable, and you get such great personal service. Thank you for such a great experience!"
