A Food Coop for Macomb
November 16, 2009
A number of people in McDonough County have begun planning a food coop for Macomb. The current initiative was hatched by Clare Kernek and a 4-person steering committee has now been formed. A community survey will be distributed beginning in early December to gauge interest and support for the new cooperative business. An open community meeting is tentatively scheduled for mid-December. The FIG Board is very supportive of this effort and will discuss the food co-op in detail at the November 30 Board meeting.
