Viroqua Food Co-op Blog

Ever wonder what a bottle of wine from our wine isle tastes like? Worried about picking one out you don’t like? If you said yes (or if you just LOVE wine and cheese), join us for our May Wine and Cheese Tasting on Saturday, May 26th from 11am to 2pm. Sample a variety of wines and other delicious items found in our store. The tasting is held at the VFC and is free and open to those 21 years and older.

Who wouldn’t enjoy receiving the gift of Chocolate? Velvety dark chocolate truffles or Chocolate covered salted caramels, sweet dark hot cocoa mix or minty chocolate stocking stuffers. It’s not called Food of the Gods for nothing.
Here at the Co-op we are passionate about chocolate and always have a good supply on hand. As the weather turns chilly and the holidays approach, we start filling our shelves with even more delectable treats. Chocolate is always a welcome gift and it can certainly help chase away the winter blues.
