Deep Roots Market

Deep Roots Market is a consumer cooperative that sells locally and organically grown or made groceries, and buys its products from vendors who practice environmental sustainability, invest in their communities, treat animals ethically, and use fair labor practices.  Founded in the 1960s as a small, vegetarian buying club in a Guilford College dorm and incorporating in 1976, today the co-op has over 2,000 member-owners and a staff of 45, and boasts the highest sales per retail square foot of any grocery store in Greensboro.  In spring of 2013, Deep Roots moved into a new, larger location in downtown Greensboro, which features a community meeting space, a café, and free wireless Internet.
