Legacy Co-op is owned by Legacy Co-op members. When you shop at Co-op, you’re supporting a Canadian business.

As a co-operative, our business is driven by the idea that working together makes us stronger. We’re committed to working with Western Canadian farmers, producers and suppliers – creating relationships that help local businesses grow and our communities thrive.

Looking at local

Co-op works with local producers, farmers and ranchers in every step of the food cycle, from offering expert agricultural advice and providing inputs, to working with local businesses to help develop food products and scale up production, to using our distribution network to bring Canadian-grown and made products to Co-op shelves for our members and customers.

There are so many advantages to choosing local products at Co-op. A shorter trip from the producer to the grocery store means the product is fresher. The economic benefits of shopping local are circular – when local businesses thrive, so do their communities. And when you’re buying food that’s been grown and produced right here in Saskatchewan, you can expect it to be a high-quality, delicious product.

Many Co-op Gold and Co-op Gold Pure products are made in Western Canada with ingredients grown in Western Canada!

At Legacy Co-op, we source products from companies right here in Saskatchewan, like:

Co-op Gold Pure Hummus
Homegrown Hummus is here! Made in Saskatoon with chickpeas grown on Hunter Farms in Southwestern Saskatchewan, Co-op Gold Pure Hummus is a delicious reminder that local products are tough to beat.
The trip from the Hunter family’s farm to your table is helped along by dedicated experts on the Pioneer Co-op Grow and Fuel Teams working closely with Lorne Hunter and his sons. You can read more about that story on agro.crs.

Co-op Gold Pure Oat Beverage
Near Tisdale, Saskatchewan, the oats that make up every glass of Co-op Gold Pure Oat Beverage are grown. Co-op and Cas-Grain Farms work together to bring you this oatstanding addition to your breakfast table.
Beeland Co-op and Lake Country Co-op provide fuel and agricultural inputs to Cas-Grain Farms. Through the process of creating this new oat beverage, Vince and Brett Casavant have become part of Co-op’s Grown With PurposeTM program – an agronomic sustainability program focused on improving farm performance and land stewardship.

Co-op Gold Pure Pickles
Did you know that Co-op is the only Western Canadian food retailer to use Western Canadian vegetables in their pickles?
Kindersley & District Co-op helps to fuel Springfield Colony, where Philip J. Wipf is one of many people growing the cucumbers that become Co-op Gold Pure Pickles. They’re made fresh four days a week during the growing season at the Food Development Centre in Saskatoon – making it easy for you to pick a local pickle.

Co-op Deli Chicken
Your quick weekday meal is a local entrée. Most of the chickens sold in Co-op delis are sourced through Prairie Pride Natural Foods Ltd. in Saskatoon, which feeds their chickens through Co-op and fuels their fleet with help from Saskatoon Co-op. In turn, Prairie Pride raises some of their chickens at Prairie View Farms near Wynyard – a business that works closely with Wynyard Co-op for their fuel needs.
Local farms work with local businesses to grow local food. It’s a cycle that benefits communities all over Western Canada! Read more about these local businesses on agro.crs.

Star Egg
Star Egg is a Sask-based food provider that specializes in grading, distributing and marketing eggs in Western Canada. One of its suppliers, Harman Poultry Farm has worked with Co-op for nearly 40 years.
“We can purchase feed that is produced by and bought from local growers through Co-op,” said Shawn Harman. “In turn, that feed is used to feed our hens and produce the eggs that go into the Co-op grocery system through the local Co-op retail channels. It is a complete, local farm-to-table circle.”
This eggceptional relationship is something to celebrate. Read about it on agro.crs.
