Thank you to State Senate candidate Karla Hult for touring the Edina Whole Foods. Grocery stores are a high volume, low margin and heavily labor intensive businesses.

We appreciate Ms. Hult taking the time to learn about the complexities of how important grocery stores are to communities across Minnesota. Thank you to Whole Foods for hosting this tour!

There’s less than a week left in the annual Minnesota Grown Retailer of the Year contest, and we’re celebrating the grocery and liquor stores that make it easy to buy local.

The next time you’re shopping, look for the Minnesota Grown label and fill your cart with products grown, raised, made, or produced right here in Minnesota—from fresh produce, meat and poultry, cheese and dairy to packaged goods, w**e, c***r, b**r, spirits, and more! 🍎🥩🧀🍺

Every time you choose Minnesota Grown, you’re helping support local farmers, producers, and businesses.

So, where will you find Minnesota Grown on your next shopping trip?

Super One Foods was honored to receive a Silver Plate Award from the Minnesota Grocers Association for Best Community Hunger Support during the 2025 Bag Hunger Campaign!

As part of this recognition, we had the opportunity to select a hunger-relief partner to receive a $1,000 donation. This year, we were proud to choose the Union Gospel Mission Duluth

Earlier this week, Steve Barthel from the Minnesota Grocers Association joined team members from Miner’s Inc. and Super One Foods, along with Corrin Thell from Union Gospel Mission, at Miller Hill Super One Foods to celebrate the award and present the donation.

We’re proud to support many different organizations making a difference in the communities we serve and look forward to participating in the 2026 Bag Hunger Campaign again this fall.
