Our Promise

Fresh-Cut Local,
Organic & Regional Meats

the Local Cuts meat and seafood department at GreenStar Food Co-op in Ithaca New York

We support farmers that prioritize the health of their animal and respect for the environment. The meats we sell are sustainably raised with no hormones or antibiotics  and available from our butcher counter. Ask our meat and cheese department staff about our local suppliers. Meat and seafood are available both in the refrigerated case near the butcher counter and in our grocery refrigerated and frozen case.

Local, Domestic
and Imported Cheeses

We carry a variety of local, domestic and imported cheeses. We also carry charcuterie and accoutrements for boards to impress your guests. Look for local cheeses from Lively Run Goat Dairy, Finger Lakes Family Farms, and more.
