Promoting the General Welfare: Co-op Food Establishments

Food deserts are a serious concern for "We the People" of both pastoral and urban locations. Some communities have addressed the scourge of hunger and poor nutrition through “cooperatives” and “buying clubs.”

This workshop will take on the promise and challenges of using mutual models in the endeavor to restore abundance and prosperity for all who live in these thirteen united sovereign states and the western territories. Resources specific to using the mutual-ownership methods popularized by Benjamin Franklin for the pursuit of the bounty of providence will be delivered.
