Why Everyone Needs a Food Co-op in Fairbanks

Join us Monday, August 2 at 6 pm, in the Noel Wein Library Auditorium for a presentation by Stuart Reid, Food Co-op Development Specialist with Food Co-op Initiative, about how a food co-op will benefit our community.

Stuart has extensive experience in food co-op management and development. He will be visiting Fairbanks to tour our potential store site and meet with us about the food co-op development process.

The presentation will be followed by a member comment period and then our board meeting. Everyone is welcome to stay for the board meeting. Bring snacks if you like.
