“We are stronger as a group than an individual. Think in a cooperative and communal way, set up local food hubs and create growing communities.”

~ Arthur Potts Dawson

“Celebrated by cooperatives nationwide during the month of October, National Co-op Month is an annual opportunity to raise awareness of a trusted, proven way to do business and build communities. Under the theme “Build Back for Impact,” this year’s Co-op Month is also a chance to leverage our shared cooperative identity in the face of some of the biggest challenges we face: a global pandemic, climate emergency and systemic racism. As we build back an economy that works for everyone, our biggest impact comes from embracing the values and principles that make us truly unique.” (coopmonth.coop)

Morrisville Food Co-op has risen to meet the challenges of the past year by forging ahead with several new additions, resets, rebranding and more. We added the Pleasant Street Café to enhance our Grab N Go selection, reset our wine selection to make it one of the best in Lamoille county and beyond, rebranded our logo, and revamped our patio with umbrellas and planters to make it accessible and comfortable for all. These are just a few ways we embraced this year’s National Co-op Month’s theme… to Build Back For IMPACT.
