The Windsor Terrace Food Coop is a community-owned cooperative. So what does that mean? Unlike a large retailer, a cooperative is an independent endeavor that is owned and operated by its members, and its members make the decisions, thereby helping to create a circular economy that supports the community at large. There is no profit motive!
For us, that means supporting our members as well as local farmers, vendors, the environment, and ethical business practices. Every dollar you spend at the coop goes right back around to providing you with what you ask for while also helping to advocate for others who share our ideals. We strive to provide our community with high-quality food at affordable prices, with a priority on products that are regionally sourced, minimally processed and packaged, and organic whenever possible. We support farmers and vendors who are kind to people, animals, and the earth!
We are actively working to make the world a better place, and we seek to meet our members’ needs while adapting to our changing neighborhood and world in ways that will strengthen our community and support our goals as a cooperative. As a member, you are an owner, and your voice matters! And if you haven’t joined yet, please do so soon — we’re all in this together!
