Saturday, January 11
Member-Owner Appreciation Day
Member-owners of our Co-op receive 10% off all day
Florence Savings Bank will be on hand this Saturday for a ribbon cutting of their recently installed Smart ATM. We will be celebrating with them and will have lots to sample and savor. If you are not yet a member-owner you can join the Co-op on Saturday and immediately take advantage of 10% off* all day. You can pay your membership in full or with small monthly payments. There are applications on the cafe tables, or any of our staff would be happy to get you a brochure. Return it to the cashier with the payment you choose and that's it. You are now a member-owner of our Co-op!
While shopping for savings try some savories from the Creamery Kitchen. We'll have samples of Lemon-Parsley Sunflower Seed Dressing, Olivada (Olive Spread), Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto, Hummus, and more. Provisions International, our primary cheese supplier, will be at the store with cheese samplings, and we will have other surprises and treats throughout the day. We celebrate and appreciate our 662 member-owners who are supporting our Co-op through ownership. We are also appreciative of you who support our Co-op with your regular patronage.
Thank you.
*As on other appreciation days, there are a few exceptions: tobacco, alcohol, newspapers, and milk cannot be included in the member-owner discounts.

 The Trustees of Reservations and Notchview in Windsor have partnered with the Co-op to supply Creamery-made soups and sandwiches to warm up and energize snowshoers and cross-country skiers this winter.
In addition, Co-op member owners who show their membership card at Notchview will enjoy 10% off cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
After an invigorating day on the trails, stop by the Old Creamery on your way home and enjoy a Creamery-made French hot chocolate, hot mulled cider, or other warmer-upper. One of our homemade desserts might tempt you as well.

Cookie Dough to Go!
From the Creamery kitchen, cookie dough made the way you'd make it at home (if you had Callebaut chocolate chips)! We make our cookies with Cabot butter, cane sugar, and unbleached flour, and we use organic oats, raisins, and peanut butter. Now you can buy one-pound containers of chocolate chip, peanut butter, or oatmeal-raisin cookie dough, ready to bake when you have a craving for warm cookies. It's in the Grab and Go case!
