More Co-op News
The ACBA will be conducting a census of Co-op Businesses in the Austin-area. We started reaching out to business members and other co-ops, as well as, been investigating if there are businesses not on our radar. We want to try to capture collectives, or other models, that could be counted as co-ops/ co-op adjacent. If you have an questions, suggestions, or know of any businesses that may not be on our radar, please email Henrik.Tucker@acba.coop.
Eastern Crescent Food Co-op
Go Austin/Vamos Austin and the ACBA are well under way in the grocery co-op project. If you haven't heard, GAVA and the ACBA is receiving city funding to assist in starting a grocery co-op for the Eastern Crescent of Austin by organizing and educating Eastern Austin residents. We are currently in the phase of doing community meetings to educate the public and recruit residents for the food co-op steering committee, outreach committee, and fundraiser committee. We have been successful in finding community leaders! Stay tuned to hear more updates.
