Our list of Shop Local partners expands today in the grocery department with Neechi Foods Co-op!
It’s no secret that the majority of our member’s trips are reported to be for grocery. Members will be pleased to hear that an article in the Metro reports recent changes to meat department and pricing have broken sales records for the worker-owned cooperative. Their meat products are no less expensive than larger big-box retailers.
Get your Shop Local card stamped at their Customer Services desk with proof of any purchase in the Commons (grocery, restaurant, or books/arts/crafts/clothing store). Once your card is full of stamps, redeem it with a Trip Log and get $10 driving credit on your monthly carshare bill.
A recent article in the Globe and Mail explains the story of Neechi Foods, highlights the importance of local purchasing, and how small choices by consumers can have large, tangible economic impact.
Bike, walk, bus, or sometimes drive down to the Neechi Commons this week, at 865 Main St (at Euclid).
