The Olympia Food Co-op is expanding in downtown Olympia. Are you part of our future?

One of the goals of our expansion project is to attempt to co-locate our new grocery store with other organizations that further our mission of "contributing to the health and well-being of people by providing wholesome foods and other goods and services, accessible to all, through a locally-oriented, collectively managed, not for profit cooperative organization that relies on consensus decision making."

In conjunction with the Northwest Cooperative Development Center, we are inviting potentially interested organizations to join us at the Olympia Center, Room 102, on Tuesday, February 12 from 6:30-8:30.

The goal of this meeting is to begin discussing how we might work together to collectively develop a facility in downtown Olympia that meets our individual businesses needs, as well as the needs of our larger community.

Won't you join us?

We promise a lively discussion, tasty treats, and the chance to be a part of a project that we believe can help transform our community for the better.

If you plan to attend please let us know so we can be sure to have enough chairs and snacks for everyone. If you need more information, please contact TJ Johnson at expansion@olympiafood.coop

I may

Make it.  I don't shop the co-op as often as I should though...  The one on the Westside is closest to me, but is a bit run down for my tastes, and the other one just is out of my way.  Having one downtown would be cool.

 

One loves to posess arms, though they hope to never have occassion for them.

Cool

I don't shop the co-op enough...  can't even remember now if I joined.  I probably should though.  Would be nice to see it downtown.  The one on the westside is close but I have been there once maybe, and to the other one half a dozen times or so...
