just found: a grocery coop coming to hamilton!

Today is a snow day (YAHOO!)
So, I get to catch up on all the things I procrastinated on over the weekend (cleaning, laundry - it's pretty exciting!)
While watching the news this morning to learn of my snow day, I found out about a really cool new initiative in Hamilton... The Mustard Seed coop! They were doing a TV spot to spread the word about what they're all about.

Here's the DL (do people still use this slang?): They're creating a new concept in how we buy groceries - supporting local, ethical, sustainable, and organic foods that require minimal to no packaging. You can support the coop by becoming a founding member with a small start-up donation ($100 per household), or by offering some of your expertise. I'm excited to find a way to get involved myself - this is such an important idea for our community and I hope becomes the new norm in many cities.
