Blue Hill Co-op

One of my favorite parts of summer vacation is visiting the food co-op in the town in Maine where my family has a cottage. This little grocery store has everything one could ever need jammed into it's tiny aisles, and most of it is sold in bulk to boot. It's a refreshing experience every time I visit, especially because of the delicious hot soup that's always available in the attached cafe.

A packaging-free aisle.

Even the salt comes in bulk.

A beautifully stocked produce cooler...

With cotton produce bags instead of plastic ones!
