The End and the Beginning

Our time at the Farmers' Market has come to an end. The task at hand now is to finish the first phase of the project and get the doors open.
We will be having another Clean-Up morning tomorrow morning at the usual time: 9:30-12:30. Only a few tasks remain:

• Sand the stockroom wall and second coat of mud
• Power wash 3 more items
• Finish painting Flower Cart
• Continue scrubbing down Produce Cooler
• Strap the shelving together
• Sweep/Mop galore

It is looking like we will not have our freezer operational by the 27th. We should have the Walk-in and the Produce cooler, however.
Our Day to Build the New Economy is going to be a celebration; but it will also be the beginning of a Membership drive: we would like to double our Membership in the following month. It should prove easy, as the grocery portion of the Co-op will be open, and some of the benefit of the Co-op Membership will be immediately evident. There will also be glimpses of what is to come.

Thank you all for your support. We look forward to serving you. We will be giving birth to the beginnings of a whole new economy, a whole new world.
