Harvest Co-op Market, Essex Street parking lot,
Central Square, Cambridge
This second annual Mass Bay
Co-op Faire, held in conjunction with the International Day for Cooperatives,
provides local co-ops with an opportunity to showcase themselves. In 2011, we
had 20 different co-ops and in 2012, there are even more. See the Participant page for an up-to-date list and links to their web sites.
In addition to
learning about co-ops of all types (consumer, worker, agricultural, housing,
etc.), participants can enjoy conversations with others interested in
cooperative economics, sample food, and attend a screening of the film At Home in Utopia about housing co-ops
in New York in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s.
