Making Local Food Happen—Together.
Our vision is a thriving community with a strong and reliable local food network. Hey, it's better together!
The purpose of the Cooperative is to
1) help its members acquire and share the knowledge, skills, and resources they need in order to
a) grow, gather, raise, and catch healthful food as locally as possible;
b) preserve, store, prepare, and share the bounty;
2) build a strong community and a diverse local food economy based on mutual support, fair prices, living wages, and respect for the natural systems which sustain life.
In a nutshell, we intend to create a network of people helping people share ideas, acquire knowledge, learn new skills, get access to shared tools and equipment, and come together to produce and preserve more food for everyone. We are incorporating as a not-for-profit cooperative, which will allow us to generate economic activity purely for community benefit.
