Maple City Market
Maple City Market is Goshen, Indiana’s trusted source for wholesome, local and sustainably sourced food since 1975. Rooted in community and driven by purpose, the co-op believes that good food has the power to nourish more than just our bodies—it connects us to the land, to our neighbors, and to a healthier future.

Market Organic Cooperative
Market Organic Cooperative is a network of farmers and cooperatives united by a common challenge: the need for more cooperatively-owned infrastructure. With their goal to make healthy food accessible for all while ensuring farms and cooperatives flourish, MOC builds and shares tools, interfaces and infrastructure to simplify the direct exchange of crops, food, products, contracts and services—without unnecessary fees and brokerage.
Farms, producer co-ops, food co-ops and other cooperatives involved in food and agriculture are eligible to become members of Market Organic Cooperative.

Syracuse Cooperative Market
Founded by an energetic group of activists in the 1970s, the Syracuse Cooperative Market’s Kensington location has been the Westcott neighborhood’s grocery store for more than 50 years. The co-op’s founders envisioned a cooperatively-owned community with access to high-quality food and a way to support local growers and producers. In 2021, Syracuse opened their second location in the Salt City Market to serve a broader part of the Syracuse community.
Syracuse Cooperative Market’s mission is to provide great food, be a hub for a strong community and promote the local economy.
