Food Co-op
Affordable and healthy food!Members of this co-op pool their resources to purchase foods in bulk and then distribute them in individual meal portions. The focus of our efforts in this food co-op is to ensure that members have a variety of nutritious food to eat throughout the month. ParticipantsAnyone on a fixed or limited income is welcome to participate in food co-op. A typical co-op member would be one receiving income assistance, pensioners, someone entering the work force at a part-time salary with limited income, or someone experiencing financial hardship.
Placing OrdersOrders need to be made by the end of the day on Wednesday for delivery or pick-up on Friday. It is essential to know early if you are ordering because fresh foods are purchased for the number of individuals who are participating in co-op that week.
Pick up dateThe co-op operates on Fridays. Food is delivered in the following areas: 33rd Avenue and North to Coal Harbour, Boundry Road and west to Main Street and West End. Other orders can be picked up at the co-op or arrangements made for a convenient meeting place within the delivery areas noted above. Delivery or pickups and scheduled between 12 - 2pm or 2 - 4pm on Fridays. Note: You MUST be home during delivery times or arrange for someone to receive the food for you.
PaymentIt is suggested that payment for the entire month be made right after "cheque day" so food is available throughout the month on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Payment must be made in advance of receiving food. Payment can be made when food is picked up or delivered. Only cash or money orders are accepted, no cheques.13th Week Free Bonus and Discounts
Standard Package ContentsCosts of the food packages are kept to a minimum through bulk buying. Therefore, the contents of the packages are set. On occasion, minimal adjustments are made, if possible, for people suffering from food allergies. However, any combination of food packages can be ordered from week to week throughout the month. For example, a $25 package can be combined with a $12.50 package. Or, a $25 package can be ordered one week and a $12.50 package the next week and so on. We sugest you look in your cupboards and order packages based on what you need. |
