We've been reviewing all the feedback from our member-owner surveys, and one of the major themes that came through was the importance of offering locally-sourced products. We couldn't agree more! Localizing our food supply supports a sustainable community, a core principle of the co-op. π
A few highlights from the survey:
"I would put a high priority on going out of your way to source as many local products, from local vendors, as possible. This includes lesser known vendors, whose products are oftentimes of a higher quality than most, if not all, of the larger producers."
" Availability of produce from truly local farmers (such as those that sell at our farmers markets)...Availability of foods not available elsewhere here, such as yak meat πand beef bacon (which I got at co-op in Moscow, ID!), excellent bread, and lots of foods/products from small businesses... I can get the multi-national corporation "organic" stuff at Whole Foods."
We'll be sharing more survey highlights in the coming weeks! Thanks to all who participated. We are busy making plans, but most importantly continuing to look for new member-owners to join. We only need about 100 more members to sign a lease. Please share this opportunity with your friends!

We were up in the Wasatch mountains during the snowstorm yesterday, which was frosty yet magical. Can you believe how beautiful our state is?!
While some of us were out on the slopes or perhaps inside, huddled under no less that six blankets by the fire, (πββοΈ) there were small farmers out feeding their stock. The next time you are journeying along I-80, keep going east past the skiing to see stunning mountain farmland in Wanship, Hoytsville and beyond. Clean mountain air, farms run with local care-- that's where we want our food to come from. #newyearnewfood #wasatchcoop

New Year, New Food! π
Let's resolve to help the #wasatchcoop gain some member-weight this year! π We want our store open ASAP so we can shop local, sustainable products to make ourselves and our community better inside and out.
What kind of 2019 #resolutions did you make? If they involve your health, community, or contributing to a more sustainable world, joining the co-op can help you achieve your goals for years to come.
(Also, we have totes, stickers and lawn signs. What else could you need in 2019!?)

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.π§‘
May today be filled with gifts that nourish the body and soul.π

We just can't get over how positively beautiful our food can be.π As we wrap up the weekend, we're reflecting on solstice celebrations. We made orange pomanders as we cheered the sun bringing back more light. Did you do anything special on the shortest day?
Fun fact: there was a full moon on the solstice this year, and that won't happen again until 2094! πβοΈπ #loveyourfood #wintersolstice
We also want to welcome our newest co-op members who joined this weekend! Welcome to the #wasatchcoop family.π We are getting soooo close to our next member owner goal- just over 100 members away from signing that lease! Together we can make it happen. #sharethelove
