Expansion update

May 20, 2026 Update

Construction is officially underway at the Co-op, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.

You may notice some construction activity around the building, including occasional noise, some construction dust, and temporary adjustments to store entrances.

We’re working hard to keep disruptions to a minimum while creating an even better shopping experience as we continue serving Asheville with local, organic, and community-focused food.

Expansion round 3 is off to an exciting start. Since 2020, the Co-op has been rehabbing and expanding its 120-year-old buildings. From new checkout room and coolers, to new roofs, new kitchen, fixing foundations, creating more storage space, and more. 

This phase is all about new retail space! All remaining administrative and behind the scenes spaces will be relocated to building 2, and the store will be bigger, brighter, and easier to shop than ever before. We’re growing your favorite departments, too. Produce, Grab & Go, Cheese, and Bulk will all grow in exciting ways.

Rest assured, there will be no interruptions to the shopping experience, no interruptions to parking, and work is expected to last the remainder of the year.

Thank you for growing with us! Your dedication to cooperative values fuels our collective successes.
