Echollective Farm
Mechanicsville, Iowa
Echollective Farm feels more like a family than a business. Members of this collective garden and CSA make their decisions gathered around the kitchen table.
Locally Grown
As a Co-op, we buy from over 20 local farms, nearly all within a couple hours drive of our stores. We also partner with another 100+ local producers to bring you Iowa’s best and freshest products (Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Illinois too).
Year round, you can find hundreds of local products at your Co-op and literally thousands during our summer and fall seasons. Yes, even in our prepared foods.
So if you missed the farmers’ market, you’re in luck! You can find products from the growers and local businesses you love right here at the Co-op.
It's Iowa grown or within 250 miles of our store.
That’s because many of the local growers and producers you see at the farmer’s market, also sell to the Co-op.
Year-round, you’ll find hundreds of local products on our shelves and even more during our summer and fall seasons.

The best thing about being an apple farmer is that, unlike a ripe tomato, [an apple] doesn’t have to be picked right now. It can wait until tomorrow. It is a nice pace.”
