Thank you so much TBA Credit Union for caring about our community! ❤️ We love seeing our businesses, farmers, and neighborhoods come together during this tough time. If you're interest in hosting your own food drive and want to find a pantry to donate to, check out our website to find a pantry (or meal site!) nearest you! 🗺As many families in our community face rising costs and uncertainty, we’re stepping up to help. From Monday, Nov. 3 to Friday, Nov. 7, we’re hosting a Food Drive to support local households in need.

You can drop off canned goods and non-perishable food items at either our Front Street or South Airport Branch during our business hours.

Donations will be distributed to local food pantries in the Grand Traverse region.
Even after the drive ends, you can keep making a difference through the Northwest Food Coalition.

Let’s come together to ensure no one goes hungry this season. Thank you for being part of this effort!

Thank you Oryana for all your support for the Coalition, our members and the neighbors we help feed.‼️IMPORTANT SNAP UPDATES: At Oryana Community Co-op, we understand that many of our shoppers will be affected by the impending SNAP benefit cessation due to the federal government funding pause beginning November 1st. Even a short disruption can make it harder to afford groceries and other essentials. While we’re still working on ways that Oryana can support critical food access during this time, we did want to share this important update for one of our existing programs.

Double Up Food Bucks remains active and available in-store. Oryana has updated our systems to ensure that all items that qualify as fruits and vegetables, are eligible for purchase under current guidelines, including frozen fruit, vegetables, and cut frozen fruit and vegetables.

Recent DUFB program updates include:
• Earned Double Up rewards will not expire through December 31, 2025
• No daily match limit so you can stretch your SNAP dollars further
• Frozen fruits and vegetables are now eligible statewide
• New Nov. 4th: $40 Double Up Bonus Bucks — dollars for fresh or frozen produce, no SNAP match needed. One per Double Up customer, while supplies last. *Fair Food Network is automatically loading $40 of Double Up Bonus Bucks on the DUFB cards beginning Tuesday, November 4th. Available through Dec. 31, 2025.

As we continue to develop these efforts internally, please know our staff is here to help answer any questions you may have about in-store benefit usage. We will update you as we learn more.
