Discover the Food Co-op

Discover the Food Co-op

Everyone can shop, anyone may join.


Food cooperatives are worker or customer owned businesses that provide grocery items of the highest quality and best value to their members. Co-ops can take the shape of retail stores or buying clubs. Food co-ops are committed to consumer education, product quality, and member control, and usually support their local communities by selling produce grown locally by family farms.

Do we need a Food Co-op in Southeast Indianapolis? Do we want a Food Co-op in the Southeast? Where should it be located? What would we hope to find there? Should it have things other than food? How should it be operated?

Join us on September 26th, to hear Mark Stewart, SEND, J.D. Haines, Premier Environmental, and Linda Proffitt, Global Peace Initiatives reveal the findings on their research into food cooperatives everywhere. Josh Bowling, INRC, will be there to tell us about the food co-op on the East side.
