How to shop

The coop is easy to find in Whistler Street, Manly.

Look for the logo on the shop front.

The coop is open to both members and non-members.

It is worthwhile to become a member in the long run, but the general public is welcome.

Some things to remember:
  • Bring paper bags with you. You can buy paper bags but they are quite dear.
  • Bring glass jars for liquids. There are also recycled, clean jars available at the coop.
  • It is easier to carry things in a cloth bag than in a box. The coop does not supply plastic bags.
  • Weigh your containers when you get there. You only pay for the contents.
  • You can arrange to have a tour of the system to get to understand the hows and whys of the coop.
  • Most days there are fresh bread deliveries from different bakers.
  • Fresh vegetables and fruit come in each day.
  • Wash your hands before you handle the bulk food.
