Produce

EFC Produce Department

  • Produce

For one of the freshest experiences on Central Avenue, take a stroll down the EFC produce aisle!

A great produce department should please your senses and inspire your menus--two goals that our produce team strives to achieve every day.  Manager Jean Eilers stocks the department with select fair-trade and organic fruits and vegetables from around the world, as well as seasonal, sustainably-raised foods from farmers we know and trust.

Mountain Gorgonzola

This gorgonzola comes from the Lombardy region of Italy, where lowland pasture cows' milk produces one of the country's most well-known cheeses. Spicy and earthy, and slightly creamier than France's crumbly, salty Roquefort, this is an extremely versatile cheese, making it more than suitable for both eating and incorporating into your favorite recipes.

Produce Manager

Jean started working one shift a week in our produce department in July of 2004; in April of 2005, she was hired as produce manager. Prior to her experience at EFC, Jean was the deli and bakery manager at Linden Hills Food Co-op for 16 years; she left LHC to take a general manager position with D’Amico Inc., a fresh foods restaurant and catering business in the Twin Cities. Jean left D’Amico within the year, as the corporate environment was not a good fit for her, and pursued a life-long love of produce at Valley Natural Food Co-op in Burnsville for two years.
