Manager's Report
Dear Community,
What a week we have – a full moon, the end of daylight savings, Dia de Muertos, Halloween, and an election. I hope you all are staying grounded and connecting with loved ones in whatever way you can. As the days get short and the temperatures cool, this is a great time to nourish yourself with delicious autumn foods: winter squash, potatoes, fire cider, bone broth...We've got the ingredients you need right here at the co-op!
We are offering pre-orders of a few types of turkeys this year for Thanksgiving, so look for the sign-up sheet in the store with more details this week. We will also sell Cornish game hens and ham. We’ll be making fresh pies this month and we've already started to stock some of the holiday classics for you to make your own treats.
Thanksgiving is historically a commemoration of a time when indigenous peoples taught European colonists how to obtain food in their land and celebrated together with a feast. Anyone who’s studied US history knows that this friendliness was soon returned by centuries of genocide. In recognition of this immense harm to native populations and their sustainable ways of living, the co-op will donate 5% of our Thanksgiving Day sales to the Indigenous Environmental Network. We will also collect donations for IEN at the store.
As a reminder, here are our holiday hours:
- Thanksgiving Day: 9am - 2pm
- Christmas Eve: 9am - 4pm
- Christmas Day: CLOSED
- New Years Eve: 9am - 2pm
- New Year's Day: 9am - 4pm
We are also very excited to announce that we will be doing some major renovations and installing new refrigeration equipment at the beginning of next year. We have finally purchased a new produce case and deli case, which will both arrive in late January. This will enable us to keep our produce fresher and last longer. Once that’s complete, we’ll start on renovations in the cafe.
Stay warm, stay safe, stay together!
Best,
Lee Farmer, General Manager
