The membership/outreach committee will meet on Saturday, March 1 at 4 p.m. at the Sound Cafe(corner of Chartres and Port).

The goal of this committee is to increase our membership and spread the word about the co-op. Some of the topics of this meeting will include distributing brochures, creating counter-top displays for businesses that will let us promote the co-op, planning a Spring fundraising/membership drive event, planning our next potluck, etc.

If you want to get involved and help out, please try to make it to this meeting.

Call John (914-6936) if you have any questions.

A representative from the Food Coop 500 will be in town in early March to lead a business planning workshop. The Food Co-op 500 Program is a support system that seeks to enable a faster and more efficient start-up process to develop new retail grocery co-ops. These heavy hitters are getting behind our effort here in New Orleans.
