I grew up with food co-ops and loved the experience. I've been part of an organizing group for a co-op here, and I think we are working at cross purposes. the message they are trying to put forward is that what worked in the 70s doesn't work now. I'm trying to figure out how what a bunch of stoned hippies could pull off in the 70s with little to no business acumen WORKED, and why it can't work now...???
