For 40 years the Grain Train has been the source for local, organic, conscientious, great tasting fresh and packaged foods. With 2000 members the Grain Train has grown from a little second floor downtown co-op to our current 4500 square foot store on main street that provides the full modern shopping experience while still embracing the core quality of the food the co-op was founded on.
Becoming an owner is easy. Benefits begin with your first payment and you only need to join once. Your owner investment is $210 total. Your first payment is $35 ($10 administrative fee and your first $25 payment) and then $25 every six months until paid off. Or pay the entire $210 at one time and receive a $10 gift card.
Monthly, Grain Train owners are estimated to save $20 or more just from the owner benefits. In the end, it pays you, the owner, to invest in your local community owned co-op.
