Delridge Produce Cooperative plans permanent produce stand
Sat, 04/09/2011
The Delridge Produce Cooperative (DPC) has recently incorporated, and is moving toward opening a permanent produce stand in the Delridge Neighborhood of West Seattle. They are a community-owned organization, without large private investors. In order to sell inexpensive, locally-grown, pesticide-free produce, they are seeking financial support.
Galena White of DPC said, "Our 'Grow' bags were so popular at our 'Mobile Market' that we decided to offer them for sale. Each bag holds more than a regular plastic grocery bag, is reusable and washable, and stuffs into one of its own corners to form a cute little strawberry. We're all volunteers, so 100% of the proceeds from these $6 bags go toward Delridge Produce Cooperative's effort to open a produce stand on Delridge. Please visit one of the locations listed below and look for one of our baskets to help us bring healthy food to our neighborhood!"

- Proletariat Pizza
- Again and A Gain Consignment
