The Merc Co+op is excited to announce the recipients of the 2026 Change for our Community program. “Change” gives shoppers the opportunity to donate their spare change to local organizations every time they shop. Each month, a different organization is featured as the recipient, and 100% of all donations collected go to that specific organization.
Since the program began in January 2014, we have raised over $700,000 for local nonprofits.
On June 30, we notified the Unified Government of Kansas City, Kansas of our intent to terminate our operating agreement at 501 Minnesota Avenue. Our Kansas City, Kansas location will close December 30, 2025. This decision is based on what’s best for the long-term viability of the co-op and the location’s financial performance. We have loved being a part of this community for the last half decade and thank those that have supported our co-op and shopped with us.

Cooking: A classic way to prepare winter squash is to cut it in half and bake until the skin is easily pierced with a fork. Squash skin is edible, but may not be texturally pleasing, with the exception of soft-skinned squashes like delicata.
Storing: Winter squash can be stored for up to 6 months in a dry and cool (50–55 degrees) location. Squash can be frozen after cooking.
Nutrition: Winter squash is high in Vitamin C, beta carotene, fiber and potassium.
Don’t forget the seeds! Squash seeds can be roasted for a snack.
