Wouldn't that make it a "meta-co-op"? Whatever you call it, this could this be the solution to the problem which seems to face the Olympia Food Co-op at present; namely, that it will potentially be inhabiting a space that is roughly twice as large as it can fill. A meta-co-op could provide an organizational structure within which negotiations and agreements could be made among local co-ops who would like to join in the rehabilitiation of the post-Safeway building in downtown Olympia.

I compared our city size to Bellingham and Port Townsend which have REALLY nice coops:
Totally..

Submitted by Rick on Mon, 05/14/2007 - 12:02pm.For example: what about a co-op for beer, wine, and distilling supplies? Or pet supplies? Or gardening supplies? Any more?
