We are open Wednesday - Saturday 10am - 5pm
Membership Appreciation Days
Spring 2023: June 1 - 3
POCC member-owners, you now have longer to use your quarterly discount benefit! Based on feedback that some people can’t shop on Saturdays, the board has increased this event to three days.
Members receive 10% off on one check-out per member household during the event*.
Come in and use your membership benefit this Thursday through Saturday. Thank you for your continued support!
*Items excluded from the discount are: Organic Valley and Alexander milk, consignment items, Port Orford Sustainable Seafood fish, eggs, and Farmstead bread.
(Yes, you can join during the event, pay your membership in full, and receive this member benefit.)
Farmstead Bread will be in the store May 31!
And then weekly!
We carry the main four Farmstead Breads flavors:
Whole Wheat (100% freshly milled wheat flour, water, sourdough culture, salt)
Country (50% freshly milled wheat flour, unbleached white flour, water, sourdough culture, salt)
Rustic White (10% unbleached white flour, freshly milled wheat flour, sourdough culture, salt)
Vollkornbrot (100% freshly milled rye flour, sprouted rye berries, sunflower seeds, flax, water, fennel seeds, sourdough culture, salt)
plus two special flavors that rotate each delivery.
May 31 - June 3 special flavors:
Seeded Whole Wheat and Jalapeño Cheddar.
Seeded Whole Wheat (100% freshly milled wheat flour, water, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flax seeds, sourdough culture, salt)
Jalapeño Cheddar (50% freshly milled wheat flour, water, sharp cheddar cheese, jalapeños, sourdough culture, salt)
Each week, you can reserve your Farmstead Bread by using the Contact Us form by 5:00 pm on Friday. Specify which flavor(s) and how many loaves. Be sure to include your phone number. We'll be ordering generously, so it's not necessary to reserve, but doing so will ensure you get what you want. Note that there is no price break for Reserve Ordering, as this is a courtesy.
We're very pleased to share this special bread from Myrtle Point, Oregon, with you. (Our regular bread Farmhouse from Cottage Grove, Oregon, will continue to be well stocked as well.)
Gift Certificates are available!
Ask at the store.
If you have a gift certificate from before November 2022 (credit card-size) please bring it it in and we'll get it into the new system for you.

Who We Are
The Port Orford CommUnity Co-op Board of Directors officially organized the Co-op as an Oregon Cooperative Corporation in November 2012. Once a location was selected, the Co-op opened its doors for business Summer 2013, in conjunction with the Farmer's Market held in the parking lot.
The Co-op has received overwhelming support from the community of Port Orford through donations, memberships, letters to the local papers, and volunteers.
Our Purpose
The presence of a local Co-op benefits the Port Orford community by complementing the existing businesses rather than competing with them. The Co-op allows:
• Support of local farmers, thereby contributing to the continuing viability of local farms;
• Dollars circulating within the community;
• Easier access to a wider variety of healthy, organic and natural foods;
• An educational service to the community in regard to healthy living and health-supportive cooking and eating habits;
• A community meeting place for discussions and sharing information about the environment, economic localization, and other topics of concern;
• A financially viable enterprise that contributes to the economic vitality of Port Orford.
