In September 1973, Members of the Onion River Co-op came together to provide good food to our community. Across four storefronts, two names, 12,000 Members and 50 years, we've continued that journey. This fall, we’re celebrating all we’ve accomplished together, and looking forward to the next 50 years!

  • What: An outdoor, all-ages celebration of food and community
  • When: September 23, 2023, from 1:30pm to 4pm
  • Where: The Great Lawn at Hula, 50 Lakeside Avenue, Burlington, VT

We’ll be joined by some of our amazing local vendors for free bites and sips all afternoon. Whether you’re looking for something sweet, savory or refreshing, we’ll have delicious options for all. Enjoy great local food from Sherpa Kitchen, Pitchfork Pickle, McKenzie, Ben and Jerry’s, Cabot, Feeding Chittenden, O Bread, Krin’s, Stewart’s Bakery and - of course! - food from City Market’s Prepared Foods department. We’ll also have drinks from Brio Coffeeworks, Plink, Young at Heart, and Queen City Kombucha.

Powered by the Jambulance, we’ll have live music from the amazing Dusk Quartet throughout the afternoon. Plus, there will be plenty of fun outdoor activities for cooperators of all ages, including face-painting courtesy of Little Artsy Faces, lawn games, hands-on art, and more!

This is a FREE community event - no tickets are required!
