GreenTree is expanding and relocating because we have grown beyond our current building’s ability to meet the needs of our Owners, shoppers, and community.
Some fun facts about our expansion and new space:
- We’ll have 10,000 square feet of space – quadruple our current size.
- This will create 15-20 new jobs with a commitment to a living wage and competitive benefits.
- Indoor and outdoor seating and an expanded prepared foods department including a full-service deli counter, plus all of your favorite grab-and-go items!
- More fresh, local, organic produce – produce will be a premier department, and our ability to support local farmers and producers will be greatly expanded in this new space.
- Updated equipment and wider aisles will create a more comfortable shopping experience.
- A dedicated parking lot will make trips to the Co-op more convenient – especially in inclement weather!
