What is The Tree?
The Tree is a non-profit student cooperative dedicated to bringing local, organic and ethically sourced staples to the whole St Andrews community at affordable prices.
Localising our food in where we shop and what we consume is a great way to support local business and reduce the carbon footprint of our meals. As a food hub, we connect producers and consumers around Fife so that we all build a resilient local economy.
We are even branching out what we sell. On top of the food, we now offer cleaning and hygiene products.
As much as possible, The Tree is trying to move towards being plastic free.
