rogers park food co-op. [View all]

posted this link in a thread about the rise of co-ops, but thought i should put it here, too.
proud to be an owner in this venture, and think it will be great for my farm. very interesting group. project is likely at least 2 years away from start up, but they seem to have a great groundwork laid.
a primary focus is to help small farmers market their goods, which is quite the pita. they will also be giving grants to farmers for things like seeds for crops they wish to carry, and equipment like hydroponics and hoop houses.
