Welcome to the Co-op!

Thursday, May 21, 2009 Tell Congress what you think about GE foods!!! Here at the Co-op, we have been dedicated to providing safe, clean, and healthy organic and natural food to the Syracuse Community for over thirty years. We have done this according to cooperative values that ensure equality of all people, and democratic control of our business. We believe that access to safe, healthy food is a global human right. A Senate bill introduced to increase funding and and food security in developing countries (Global Food Security Act) also requires that foreign agricultural development aid include investment in genetically engineered (GE) crops. This effort to fight global hunger and poverty would force GE crops on countries and farmers that don't want them. You can read more about this at the Center for Food Safety, including a protest letter to congress. Comments due by June 1st, 2009!

As a result, it is anticipated NCGA members will reduce virgin plastic consumption by more than 35 tons, or 70,000 pounds, in 2009. Cool!
