We pride ourselves on providing delicious foods and products sourced locally from our community as often as possible. We buy from over 169 local producers and carry over 2,110 local products in our stores.
We support local farmers and producers as often as we can because thatโs how we help sustain and support our local economy and our community. From the ingredients we use in our bakery and deli, to our fresh produce selection, we love local, all year long.
Our in-store bakery is known for freshly made bread, pies, and a wide assortment of pastries, croissants, bagels, scones, cookies, and bars. All made from scratch and baked daily. Looking to order one of Franklin Countyโs best custom-made cakes? Weโll work together to design your dream dessert from the flavors to the decorations.
Our beer & wine department at McCuskerโs Market offers great beers, ciders, and wines including local favorites from The Peopleโs Pint, West County Cider, Four Phantoms Brewing, Progression Brewing, and Stoneman Brewery. Every day, you’ll find beer from over 20 local producers.
We carry an extensive collection of wine, including organic wine. Each wine is hand selected by our buyers who keep an eye on new and local. Looking for a wine for a special occasion or to pair with a favorite local cheese? Our staff is happy to help you find the right match.
Let us take cook for you! We make a delicious assortment of catered foods for all occasions, from work meetings to holiday meals. We prepare fresh fruit and cheese platters, breakfast pastries, scones and muffins, made to order sandwiches and sides to go. All of our catering is made from scratch and prepared fresh for your order.
Catering orders must be picked up at Green Fields Market, 144 Main Street, Greenfield. Delivery is available through Halo Couriers. Ask for more information on charges and delivery times when placing your catering orders.
Each of our stores has an extensive selection of cheese, including cheese from local producers, imported cheese, and farmer cooperatives like Cabot, Organic Valley, Jarlsberg and Gjetost. Both stores feature cow, goat, and sheep-milk cheese. Looking for dairy-free cheese? Check out our vegan options, including nut, soy, and plant-based cheeses.
Got milk (and butter and yogurt)? Weโve got delicious dairy products with an eye to supporting our local and regional dairy farms. We stock cow, goat, and plant-based vegan dairy options at both of our stores, along with fresh eggs.
Don’t miss our monthly Cave to Co-op specials! Each month we feature New England cheese offered at a special price through a partnership of regional artisan cheese makers, our cheese supplier Provisions International Ltd., and the Neighboring Food Co-op Association, a cooperative of over twenty co-ops in New England, including Franklin Community Cooperative. Look for the “Cave to Co-op” sign in the cheese case for the featured cheese of the month, offered at a special low price โ usually 25ยญ-50% below the regular retail price. Itโs a great way to try some outstanding regional cheeses at lower than usual prices.
Every day, our kitchen and deli staff pride themselves on making and serving fresh, from scratch healthy foods for our customers. When we say “made from scratch” we mean it.

Looking to stretch your grocery budget? So are we! That’s why we’re pleased to have the Co+op Basics Program. Co+op Basics offers everyday low prices on over 200 popular grocery and household items. From milk to pasta to cereal, you’ll find both value-priced brands as well as low prices on some old favorites.
Many of these more affordable choices are from the Field Day brand. Field Day offers everyday low prices on many popular grocery and household items, from cooking oils to dry goods. We love Field Day because most of their food products are certified organic and made in the USA (some items may have imported ingredients). To be certified organic, a product canโt contain GMOs, but for those products that are not certified organic, Field Day has made a commitment to non-GMO sourcing, as well.
Don’t worry, we aren’t paying our farmers or employees any less. We’re simply committed to carrying a selection of products so that everyone can find value when shopping the co-op.
Our series of recipes “Cooking with Co+op Basics” will help inspire some delicious recipes using lower cost Field Day products.
Looking for a unique gift for special occasions and holidays? We carry beautiful locally crafted artisan goods including beeswax candles, kitchen tools, garden supplies, handwoven baskets, and adorable Jellycat stuffies for the kids and kids at heart in your life.

We work to provide our customers with a selection of antibiotic, hormone, nitrate and nitrite-ยญfree meats and seafood that are grass-fed, humanely treated, organic and non-GMO and use sustainable practices.
Franklin Community Co-op is deeply committed to supporting local farms and our regional food system.
