Weaver's Way Co-op

South Philadelphians interested in participating in the formation of a food co-op for the neighborhood should mark their calendars for Mon., April 26 at 6:30 p.m., when organizers of Germantown food co-op Weaver's Way will speak on the topic. Learn exactly what a food co-op is, how it works and volunteer to participate at the meeting, which will be held at the South Philadelphia Older Adult Center (SPOAC) at 1430 E. Passyunk Ave. at Dickinson.

As a Weavers Way member I support this. I was late but our other representatives carried on well, without me. I'd say 50-60 people attended and after breaking into small groups to discuss this whole thing with wants and needs, committees were formed. More meetings and planning sessions to come. If you're in South Philadelphia then keep your eyes out for this, especially if you want to see it happen.
