General Manager's Report - Out With the Old, In With the New!

Natural Times-January/February 2008

By Larrane Hartridge, General Manager

We are off to a running start with the expansion. Thank you for your patience and support so far. Things are going to get a bit of a squeeze as we enter into the second phase of construction, but it won't be too long until it's all done. We have been most fortunate to be working with Mad Dog Design and Construction. They have been great. Remember, if you can't locate an item please ask for assistance. Everything will be on the move for the next few months.

Look for some great New Year savings in our wellness department. There is a 10% off coupon on the back of the January 2008 Co-op Advantage sales for all wellness items.

This January we are implementing a new program intended to help low income community members join the Co-op. The Frieda Ireland Memorial Assistance Program is in honor of long-time owner and friend, Frieda, who past away last year. Frieda supported our co-op in so many ways: volunteering, teaching seminars and sharing her knowledge and passion for food with all of us. New Leaf Market will offer up to 10 ownerships each year to local residents who are committed to supporting the Co-op. For more information pick up a flier at the service desk or visit our website www.newleafmarket.coop. Happy New Year!
