Actual Veggies Veggie Burgers

This name don’t lie—these quarter-pound patties are crafted with nothin’ but vegetables (and sometimes quinoa). In fact, they are soy free, gluten free and nut free, which is super unique for a veggie burger! Choose from Mushroom Quinoa, Sweet Potato, Superfood Green (yes, the patty is actually green), or Black Bean. High in protein, high in fiber, and highly colorful. Grab these at Willy East only. https://actualveggies.com/

The Unscented Company

The Unscented Company—with B Corp and Women-Owned certifications—is on a mission to minimize our collective environmentalimpact. As the name suggests, this company’sproducts are all fragrance- (and dye-) free. Never tested on animals and biodegradable with over 90% naturally-derived ingredients, you can rest assured that these products are safe and gentle on the family as well as the environment. All Co-op locations have recently brought in their shampoo, conditioner, and hand soap. All three of these products will also have two liter (67.6 fl oz) refill pouches available, so you can refill your own containers. Each refill pouch saves four single-use bottles from the waste stream! https://unscentedco.com/

Chunks of Energy

They’re back! At Willy East and Willy West, you can find the same Chunks of Energy we used to pack into little clear bags at our production kitchen, now in 7-ounce resealable pouches. These chewy chunks have been made by a family-owned and operated company since 1992. Many varieties to choose from like Cacao Superfoods or Lemon Pomegranate. Bite-sized and packed with nutrition, they are great for the trail or the lunchbox. https://www.chunksofenergy.com/

Baba’s Pitas and Hummus

Mini, fluffy, soft pitas. Makes a great snack or Mediterranean tray addition for your next party spread. And they are perfect for scooping up their creamy hummus, which comes in a traditional form, or some tasty flavors like Roasted Red Pepper and Caramelized Onion. https://lovebabas.com/

Woodstock Organic Banana Water

One ingredient: organic banana. Though as simple as it may sound, there are actually two varieties of heirloom banana that make up this beverage. Loaded with natural antioxidants and electrolytes but no added sugar or artificial flavors. It’s a great sports drink too. https://www.woodstock-foods.com
