About Us
Local inland northwest cooperative
LINC Foods is a worker and farmer owned food hub based in Spokane, WA. We envision the Inland Northwest with a robust local food system and a vibrant ecosystem.
LINC and Equity
LINC’s mission centers on building a robust food system. That vision is unachievable without equity and racial inclusivity. To uphold our values we must stand in solidarity and end internalized and systemic racism that is embedded within so many parts of our world, including the food system.
