People's is a beacon of light in La Crosse, WI. It's a medium sized co-op off of King and 5th, with…read moreminimal parking to the side of the building, but extra parking behind the building near the bank. Be careful though, there are signs that designate certain parking spots for bank customers only. On the outside, it's not overly impressive but as always, it's what's on the inside that counts. When you walk in, the fresh produce (local if available, organic and conventional options all abound) is the first thing you see. Nestled inside of the produce department is a generous salad bar, where you can build your own salad from a serious array of veggies, proteins and toppings for about $6 a pound. Not a bad deal if you're on the run or at the store and don't feel like cooking tonight! There's also an aisle solely dedicated to bulk foods, and their selection is completely impressive. Take a stroll down that aisle before settling on anything pre-boxed or pre-bagged. Make sure you take one of their provided stickers and write the PLU (provided on the dispensing canisters) on the bag for the person at the check out! They've got your standard fare (cereals, canned items, household cleaning items), but with an eye to what's organic, local, environmentally friendly etc. Their meat and dairy department is amazing, and you can pick up farm fresh eggs that are locally grown and harvested for just under $4 a dozen. I purchased some ground beef that was locally raised and grass fed, and it was exceptional. There's a fantastic deli department with pre-made items, a bakery that can definitely get you in trouble, and a wine and beer aisle with a cold side if you're in a hurry. There's even a section for essential oils and charcoal soaps and things of that nature. The best part is, you don't need to be a member to shop here. Membership is encouraged at about $100 or so a year, and you get special savings that way. I recommend the co-op to everyone I come across!

Me and my wife recently visited this Co-op to see what was offered. This place had a great…read moreselection of health food items and a decent selection of hard cider too. Parking is pretty accessible as well and the food here was fairly priced. I did think it was a bit odd that the restrooms were a bit of a long walk. The lines do move really slow and they tend to keep only one cash registered line open. Overall, it was a general grocery store with checking out.

I always am happy to see natural-type food stores in small towns, and that is certainly the case…read morehere. This seems like a labor of love for them, and I am glad that they have stayed in business for so long. A noteworthy feature of the store is the prepared food selection. I'm not sure if there are any regular restaurants with organic-type food in Platteville (I doubt it), but at least I know that I can get something to eat here. They have hot food for lunch several times a week, plus soups and various cold prepared foods every day. The selection of bakery goods is especially nice. Everything is prepared on the premises, and they also have a very nice dining area in the converted apartment above the store (up a steep staircase). The vegan vegetable soup that I tried was excellent, and I also enjoyed the lemon shortbread cookie that I tried. I was disappointed, though, that even though I was informed that everything is organic, that actually is not true of the meats used in the prepared food products. So I plan to steer clear of foods with meat in them when eating here in the future, since I do not do well with meats when the animals have been fed glyphosate-contaminated feed. I actually threw the chicken salad that I bought away because it was inedible to me. I wish I had read the ingredient list before tasting it, rather than trusting what the store employee told me about all the prepared food being organic. The fact that they are using non-organic meats in the prepared foods seemed a little odd to me since they actually have a very, very nice selection of organic local meats in the freezer section. So it must just be that they are trying to keep costs down on the prepared foods, in order to increase sales volume. That is not a strategy that I really approve of, but it may be necessary for them to stay in business, I guess. As is evidenced with the prepared food, there seems to be a strong vegetarian/vegan emphasis throughout this store, with many such products being stocked. The fresh produce section was pretty good (though i am not sure what it will be like in winter months). I bought some frozen ground lamb and thought the quality was very good. It has been hard for me to get good lamb here and so will be buying that from this store again. They also stock New Century organic pastured eggs, which I have found in the past to be very good quality for eggs available in a supermarket. Those eggs are no longer being sold in Galena/Dubuque though, and so I very well may make special trips to this store to buy those eggs during the winter months, when it is harder to get good eggs from local producers. The selection of cheeses was pretty good, though with the local products, it would be really helpful to know what the animals are eating (e.g. grass-fed, organic feed, GMO-free feed, conventional feed). It would be pretty easy for the store to collect that information and supply it, if they chose to do so. I thought it was nice that there were a variety of store-made frozen soups being stocked (though I would not eat a high percentage of them since they were made with non-organic meat). I was not particularly impressed by choices of packaged goods products stocked by the store, since I feel that in many cases that they had not selected the better products from various categories. A lot of their products were non-organic and had ingredients such as "natural flavors" in them, for instance. In addition, I felt that the packaged goods products were across the board quite high-priced. I would like to see more local packaged goods too. I guess in keeping with their lunchtime focus, their selection of drinks was quite good, and the prices on these were not too bad. Again, all in all, it is great to have a market like this in a town like Platteville. If I lived in town, I would likely come in regularly to buy produce, meat, eggs, cheese and prepared foods. And I undoubtedly will go out of my way to stop by again when I am in this general area or when I need eggs or lamb.

Always love finding local quality food in small towns and Driftless Market nailed it! I had the…read moreBLTG (Bacon Lettuce Tomato Gauc) wrap, chicken wild rice soup and lemon shortbread cookie.
