Local. Fresh. Organic.
We bring our island’s farmers, foragers and fishers straight to your table!
Cortes Natural Food Co-op is a community-owned cooperative business. We are passionate about bringing locally grown, organic, sustainably produced, healthy food to our community. With our Natural Food Market, Bakery, Deli & Espresso Bar, we bring the heart and soul of our island’s farmers, fishers, and foodies straight to your table!
The Cortes Natural Food Co-op is grateful to operate within the overlapping traditional territories of the ƛohos (Klahoose), ɬəʔamɛn (Tla’Amin) and χʷɛmaɬkʷu (Homalco) First Nations. The language spoken in these territories is ʔayʔaǰuθəm (ayajuthem), a northern dialect of the Coast Salish language group. Words and phrases in ʔayʔaǰuθəm can be learned using the language tool on First Voices.

Deli & Self Serve
Come get a hot coffee or bowl of soup, and shop all of the breads, baked goods, sandwiches, wraps, specialty foods, meats, and cheeses. If you need assistance, just let us know, we are happy to help you. Many of the items for sale in our deli are made in-house – pizza, sandwiches, wraps, and soup.
