The Co-op offers a diverse selection of classes, from our cooking programs to informal discussions about healthy lifestyles inside and out. We believe in educating our community about important food, family, health and environmental issues.

First Alternative strives for excellence in our products and services, including wholesome organic foods, innovative education and community outreach, while offering high quality, local, organic and minimally packaged products whenever possible.

All cooking classes are held in the Co-op’s meeting room at the South Store, 1007 SE 3rd Street, Corvallis. Register by mail, or at the Customer Service Desk (North or South). Pre-registration and pre-payment are required for all fee classes. Co-op owners receive a discount on classes.
