 Mountain View Market Idaho Crossing Shopping Center 1300 El Paseo, Suite M Monday- Saturday 8AM-8PM Welcome to Co-Op Market, a community owned natural foods grocery store in the Mesilla Valley of the Rio Grande beneath the rugged Organ Mountains. We’re proud of food that is as clean and pure as our fresh air and blue skies! Herbal health care is easy with tinctures, capsules and bulk herbs, (Mother Nature’s pharmacy) and a wide assortment of supplements and information.A center for scent-ual pleasures--includes a wide variety of incense, scented candles, essential oils, and other delights. The far left of the photo catches the end of the book nook, a smorgasbord of cookbooks and natural healthcare books. Bulk bins are a delight for bakers, hikers, party-givers, and just about everyone else! Here you’ll find every imaginable kind of nuts, dried fruits, health snack foods, whole grains, dried beans, lentils, and peas, flours, seeds, granolas, dry mixes, rolled grains, rice varieties, and more.Liquid bulks include maple syrup, olive oil, molasses, tamari, and vinegar, as well as body care and household products. Bags and bottles are provided, but bulk buying invites you to protect the environment by refilling containers you bring with you. Ripe flavorful, nourishing produce starts with a commitment to harmonize with Mother Nature. All our produce is certified organically grown or locally grown without pesticides.Grocery aisles are stocked with pure food for healthy people. Selections are free of artificial flavors and colors and chemical preservatives. Many grocery items are made organically grown food and whole grains. We carry items for ethnic and other specialty cooking, including protein-rich ancient grains such as amaranth and quinoa, and up-to - the -minute food products like sun-dried tomatoes. For saving time without sacrificing nutrition or flavor, our frozen section is filled with a variety of ready-to -heat entrees and meals, helpers like frozen whole-grain pizza crust, and gourmet treats like whole organically grown berries and Ben & Jerry’s ice creams and sorbets.Local honey is a favorite, especially here in the desert where flavors range from light and pale mesquite blossom to dark and hearty salt cedar. We sell in bulk, as pictured, which requires it to be warm so it will pour. We sell it raw (never been heated) in containers. All are from local producers. The finest coffees are organically grown. Flavor varies with variety and depth of roasting. No chemical pesticides affect the pure flavor. Take home whole-bean to grind as you use it, or grind it to your preference at our store. Buy in bulk--a little or a lot.Avoiding caffeine? Our decaf choices are safely decaffeinated using the Swiss water method. Herbal teas and roasted grain beverages are delicious no-caffeine hot or iced beverages. Before you leave Co-Op Market, treat yourself to lunch at the only whole-foods deli in the area. Unique salads, home style soups, fresh sandwiches on whole grain breads, vegetarian entrees, luscious desserts, and smooth cold brewed organic coffees make lunch-in and take-out a special treat! You’ll find ethnic specialties and New Mexico traditionals with a healthy difference – like tamales without lard and burritos on whole grain tortillas. Energize the afternoon with a glass of freshly squeezed carrot juice, sip a tall glass of herbal iced tea, or slurp a fruit smoothie at intimate tables inside or in the shady sidewalk café.Looking ahead to serve more of the needs of our members and other customers, we’re planning a move in the summer of 1999 to an environmentally friendly building with a warm and earthy ambiance that emanates from the construction materials. These architectural renderings reflect a wish-list compiled by a membership focus group, Co-Op Market staff, and the board of directors. In a land where the sun shines almost every day of the year, plans include solar energy applications wherever feasible. Walls will utilize earth from the site in a hi-tech version of traditional New Mexico adobe. Plants which thrive in our dry summer heat will provide water-conserving landscaping. It’s our dream store, and we’re hard at work making it our reality. |
