Come for Birthday Cake!

It’s hard to believe, but the Local Beet Co-op is nearly one-year old… and what a year it’s been!

In honor of the first anniversary of our community-owned natural food co-operative, all are invited to stop in for birthday cake, and other celebratory treats, at One Main Street, Chester, on Friday, May 4th. We’ll be celebrating from 5-8 pm during Chester’s 21st Annual May Daze Stroll, where shops, galleries and restaurants in Chester Village will stay open for strolling, discovering, tasting and shopping.

Our new juice bar, JUSTFOOD, will also be open, and barista Lisa Sobolewski will be on-site serving up uber-healthy organic juices, smoothies and raw chocolates.

Every year for May Daze, the Merchants of Chester throw a festive jubilee to commemorate the arrival of spring. Local residents and visitors alike are invited to stroll the streets of idyllic Chester Village to see handmade accessories and furnishings, paintings, photographs, sculptures, fashions and jewelry, and to taste baked goods and other culinary delights. It promises to be a great evening!

Welcome to our New Blog

We've been working diligently at the Local Beet to bring our young co-op to the next level. Starting a blog is one more way we can keep our members, shoppers and the general community informed about what we've been up to and what we are planning, as well as to highlight our current grocery and produce offerings.

So check back often, or better yet subscribe, and the blog posts will go right to your e-mail inbox as soon as they are posted. Thanks for your support!
