Help Bring a Food Co-Op to our Community!

Are you interested in starting a food co-op in the Brewerytown or Fairmount neighborhoods? So are your neighbors — more than 500 of them to be exact! But, Brew/Fair Co-op needs MORE folks to express interest and support before moving forward in the process of opening a neighbor-owned grocery store. Can you help the co-op collect 700 names by May? If you're interested in learning more, fill out this interest form. And please share with your neighbors!
