Wedge Community Co-ops wouldn’t exist without the incredible products that line our shelves—and more importantly, the people behind them. From the beginning, our purpose has been clear: to share the goodness of our local food system and to celebrate the farmers, makers, and producers who bring it to life every day.
50 Years of Dedicated Farmers & Makers
As we reflect on the past 50 years, we are deeply grateful for the tireless dedication and enduring vision of those who sustain us. Our farmers and makers—many of whom started small and grew alongside the co-op— are the heartbeat of our stores. Their entrepreneurial spirit, rooted in a respect for the land and a commitment to quality, continues to shape the way we nourish our community.
“We started working with the Wedge in 2018, and it was the very first store to carry Maazah. Their support gave us our start and helped introduce our sauces to a wider community. That early partnership meant the world to us — it gave us the encouragement we needed to keep going and showed us that there was a real love for what we were creating.” Sheilla & Yasameen Sajady, Co-Founders of Maazah
“It’s truly a pleasure to partner with Wedge Community Co-ops. We recognize that while we focus on producing high-quality turkey, it’s your efforts that bring our products to our shared customers. You play a vital role in ensuring our turkey is available to the community.” Colleen Johnson, Customer Service Manager, Ferndale Market
“In 2017, I began working in Wellness at the Wedge. I discovered an entire world of herbal supplements, organic body and skincare, and healing teas and botanicals. That is what ultimately inspired me to create my own company, Botanical Lucidity, which is now sold at The Wedge!” Kayla Emmons, Founder, Botanical Lucidity
