A different kind of food co-op

[IthacasFoodWeb]

Not sure where the Ludgate's discussion is at this point, but I was
inspired by this article, which describes a type of hybrid farmers
market/co-op business model:

this is an awesome article! i've been wishing for a brick-and-mortar
like this in ithaca and think ludgates would make a great match for
it.
to increase the market, garden gate would be willing to add "wheels"
to
the venture!

thanks for sending this along, alison.
