Out of the old, into the new
Chris Hardie on Oct 28th 2009
We’re excited to note that we’re reached a major milestone in our work to relocate the Clear Creek Food Cooperative, after many conversations about how we can best live out our organizational mission. The Coop has secured a new space in downtown Richmond at 710 East Main Street, where we’ll be opening our new store location in the coming months. Of course, we’re sad to be leaving behind our long-time spot on the campus of Earlham College, but we continue to work with the Earlham community to suggest ways to fill in for the role we played there, and we’re confident that this change will continue to serve Earlham and the wider community well.
We’re still working hard on the items I mentioned in my September update - forming a new legal entity, finalizing our membership model, etc. - and we invite you to be a part of that as much as you can. In the short term, we also need your help cleaning up at our old space so we can leave it in great shape - contact us if you’re available in the next few days to do that.
Thanks again to everyone who has offered their support and energy throughout this move. Stay tuned to this space in the weeks to come for announcements about the new space and plans for our grand re-opening!
