1.Join the Co-op Staff in the Fall!
Would you like to work in an energizing and engaging environment?  Are you
looking for a way to serve the Earlham and Richmond community by promoting
healthy, whole, and just approaches to obtaining the food you eat?  Then
consider joining the staff at Clear Creek Food Co-op!  We are looking for
exciting people to fill a couple of positions.

*Cashier: Looking for people-friendly coop-er and a quick learner to staff
the cash register on Wednesdays from 11am-4:30pm.  Also possibilities of
some evening hours.

*Sandwich Maker: If you love to make good food and need some work that has
flexible hours, consider making sandwiches for the Co-op!

If you are interested, pick up an application at the Co-op!

2. Co-op at the Farmer's Market
Be sure to stop by the city lot next to Morrison-Reeves library (N. 6th
and N. A) for a great selection of local produce, between 7-11am (get
there earlier in the morning for the best selection--some of the stalls
close around 10 orso...)  The Co-op doesn't carry much produce during the
summer due to decrease in foot traffic through the store, so we encourage
you to plan on obtaining your fresh local produce at the market!

You can also find the Co-op holding some space at the Market!  We will be
selling a variety of our bulk foods and snacks and doing outreach in the
local community.  Stop by and see us!

3. Welcome to Kristina Perry, the Co-op's New Kitchen Manager
The Co-op is happy to announce that we have filled the kitchen manager
position!  Kristina Perry will be joining us all the way from California.
Kristina has extensive experience working with food and other worker
cooperatives, as well as actively working with vegetarian/vegan/ whole
foods cooking for large groups (she worked in a Friend's school cafeteria,
among other creative kitchen environments!).  She is joining the Richmond
community for a year, and will arrive in August.  We look forward to
having Kristina join us and hope you will stop by to greet her when she
arrives!

4. Handmade Items at the Co-op
Long-time member Janet Wagner has graciously knitted many colorful
potholders/scrub rags to sell at the Co-op.  They are only $5 each and all
proceeds of these purchases will go to the Co-op.  Come by and see these
great crafts!

5. Next Order
