Big changes at Fields Best, East Troy

Fields Best store in East Troy

With the flurry of activity in accelerating local food systems, one overarching reality is that the big-box grocery stores have changed the game. Natural, organic food offerings are abundant at cheap prices. At our Fields Best store in East Troy, Wisconsin, we offer a variety of local food products, but we have found that we cannot compete in the high volume/cheap price game. To continue to provide healthy, sustainable choices, we will move to a new co-operative model as an alternative to conventional retail.
