Surprise! That's Rad produced our first ever "prank episode" this year in honor of April Fool's Day. If you want a guaranteed laugh this is the place to be! Listen to the story of how our intrepid podcast host Anastasia is taken by local organic aliens, and humble cashier Bob has to step up to the plate and host the podcast. There's mad dashing across the store, thought-provoking guest star interviews, and some fresh and funky new tunes to add to your playlist. But beware -- everything is not as it seems...Remember; April Fools Day is a state of mind, meaning you can also send this to a friend and give them their daily jump-scare. Enjoy!

We're not pranking you by saying that the Littleton Food Co-op is blooming with fresh local produce, meats, cheeses, craft beer and wine, bulk foods, prepared deli items, and more. We’re also stocked to the brim with every type of seed for the green thumbs, and have a wonderful selection of houseplants for the…less than green thumbs. All of it is here for you, our local community. No membership is required to shop. Come stop by, just off Exit 41 in Littleton, and see why we’re being called “the friendliest place in the North Country.” Or visit us online at littletoncoop.com for weekly specials, healthy recipes, and more.

Episode XXXII: Spring has Sprung

Can you believe the Littleton Food Co-op turns 15 in 2024!? You know what they say – time flies when you’re cooperating together! On this episode of That’s Rad, host Anastasia sits down with Brian Labonte, current Assistant Operations Manager of the Littleton Co-op. Brian is one of the original ten employees from when the Co-op opened its doors in 2009. You may recognize Brian from his most prominent role as Produce Manager, but he’s actually worked in over six departments throughout the store! His wealth of knowledge about the history of the Co-op is so widespread, you’d hardly believe he didn’t know anything about co-ops upon starting here… or so he says. Brian also plays along with Anastasia’s poorly drawn out metaphor of the Co-op being like a teenage daughter we have to raise and buy a car for. Hear the story of Brian and the Co-op all in this episode! 


The Littleton Food Co-op has been your community-owned, community-oriented marketplace since 2009. The Co-op works for the North Country of NH and the NEK of VT, not some big grocery conglomerate. We’re actually owned by over 10,000 real people who committed to supporting our local economy. The Littleton Food Co-op employs local people, sells locally produced goods, and provides a space for local folks to gather and cooperate together. We return the love to our community through generous donations and support of local non-profits, and supplying the good foods that folks want to see. It’s all served up at fair prices with the best customer service around! See it all for yourself just off Exit 41 in Littleton or online at littletoncoop.com. No membership is required to shop – everyone is welcome at the Littleton Food Co-op ♥
