Hello, neighbors,
I stopped by Mill Valley, which will be the location for
the Baltimore Food Coop. They will launch when they
get 1000 people paying an initial membership fee
of $100. They have about 880 who have pledged to
join, so they are close to their goal. Here's their site:
http://www.baltimorefoodcoop.com/ .
Kathleen and I decided to sign up. It's uncertain how
this will go, so it's a leap of faith. But it seems they're
going about it with some good organization and they
have a good location.
The last food coop that tried to launch was the Village
Food Coop next to the Yabba Pot on Saint Paul.
I went there once, and it seemed amateur-ish and
quite pricey. So I'm not getting my hopes up that
this one will succeed, but I'm keen to help give it
a chance.
When it comes to grocery options, I really feel quite
fortunate living here in Charles Village. We've got
the Giant, Eddie's Market, Farmer's Market, and
the Punjab grocery.
Thanks,
--Emil
