COOPERATIVES

Let's talk co-ops!  Co-ops are a great model for building a democratic food system rooted in community!  Co-ops can take many forms - food co-ops, workers, producers, processors, farmers, fishermen, buying clubs, credit unions, marketing, & more!

"I know, but I'm working on trying to be a little quicker with intuiting symptoms since they all "look" alike!  .  At least we have each other to consult and whine to!"

Thanks for the advice, fellow Berry! I am a vegetarian, but chickens would be great for eggs if we had space. Unfortunately, we live in a tiny apartment in Portland. We don't have any space outside for planting, & what we have inside is very limited, especially since we have cats that love to munch anything green! In the future we'll have some space for a mini-farm, I hope! Then I'll put your advice to work!

Thanks. That one sounds familiar. I think that was on the list of places I want to check out.

Have never made any of the items you mentioned, nor do I have any sources. I probably am not much help, except that I have a desire to learn. I have just became a vegetarian again after several years of eating meat. However, I think if I could find a local farm that I can trust I would be open to eat beef, pork, chicken in limited quantities.

I would love to learn how to make cheese and start a group!

I think on some level we understand how important cooking is and we miss it in our lives.

Starting to think about a HACCP plan

As America's food system becomes more professionalized and distribution channels widen, small producers and plants have an opportunity to move into new markets.  Consumers are looking for safe, wholesome food, and entrepreneurs are stepping up to provide new products, or put an new twist on established products.Food however, exists in a regulatory framework.  If you want to grow your business into wholesale, sell meat, dairy, seafood or juice, someone is going to regulate you.  And whomever…See More
