Other stores offer kids free cookies. Co-op Market is different: We’d rather teach them to enjoy healthy treats, and most kids like fruits. So in August 2014 we started the Co+op Explorers club for children ages 12 and under.

Every Co+op Explorer gets one free banana or other piece of yummy fruit per Co-op Market visit! After signing up, your child can take fruit from the basket at the Customer Service Desk.

Kids only need to sign up once. After that, every time they visit the store, they can take a piece of fruit.

Explorers can eat their fruit while parents shop. At check-out, please mention that your child is an Explorer and had a free banana, apple or other fruit.

Ask for more information at the Customer Service Desk. And go bananas!
