One Step Closer to a second store!

  • Willy West

OPEN LETTER TO WILLY STREET CO-OP OWNERS
March 9th, 2010

As you may know, Willy Street Co-op has long been interested in opening a second store, and now we are one step closer. The corner of University Avenue and Park Street in Middleton (6825 University Ave.) is in negotiations to become the new home for “Willy Street Co-op—West.” We are excited about this space because it offers easier access to Owners who live west of the Isthmus and space for a beer and wine section and a full-service meat counter.

Willy Street Co-op Owner Bonds

  • Willy West

What is an Owner Bond?
An Owner Bond is an investment in the second store. Owners may buy bonds for $200 each and Willy Street Co-op will issue an IOU (a.k.a. Owner Bond) that will pay a stated rate of interest and plans to return the original loan amount at maturity. Owner Bonds are completely unsecured.

Local Staff Picks

Dani Rothman – Grocery Dept.

Hidden Springs Creamery
Bohemian Blue cheese

“I have never tasted a blue cheese with so much flavor, and coupled with an apple or pear it’s just divine!”

Pinn-Oak Farms
Lamb Cajun Sausage

“While our sausage selection can be lacking, this one pops! Enough snap to the skin, the right amount of spice to the meat, use instead of meatballs in spaghetti or on a roll with mustard and sauerkraut when the brats are a little played out.”

Willy Street Co-op customer CHIP donations break $100,000

If you have CHIP-ed at our registers in the last year, then you have contributed to Community CHIP donations from Willy Street Co-op breaking $100,000!

In 2009, our customers donated $101,000 to Community CHIP, which passed that money on to their 67 member organizations. These oganizations work on a variety of issues including the environment, affordable housing, community development, violence prevention, services for people with disabilities, advocacy for people facing discrimination, consumer protection, and much more.

"We at Community Shares/CHIP are so grateful to everyone involved," says Moira Urich, Marketing and Communications Director at Community Shares of Wisconsin. "The Co-op is so much more than a great store. It also has a great staff and the best shoppers - people who are clearly strong supporters of our community. All of the groups that are part of CHIP appreciate your help very much."

Haiti Earthquake Relief

for Cooperative Relief & Rebuilding Efforts

Willy Street Grocery Co-op has already sent some funds to aid those effected by the earthquake in Haiti through the Cooperative Emergency Fund.  If you would like to  make your own donation, please let your cashier know and we’ll collect your contribution and it will be forwarded to Cooperative Emergency Fund.

Over the last 20 years, Cooperative Development Fund (CDF) has raised over $275,000 for cooperative relief and rebuilding efforts for ten different disasters. Their Cooperative Emergency Fund (CEF) was founded to give stability and constancy to CDF’s emergency relief efforts, many of which are of a longer-term rebuilding nature. The Cooperative Emergency Fund will be donating all monies received from here until July 2010 to help the rebuilding efforts in Haiti. CDF will be collaborating with international cooperative relief efforts in this endeavor to rebuild those co-ops afflicted by this disaster.

If you would prefer to make your donation directly to the CEF, please see their web site at: www.cdf.coop

BPA monitoring update

In a welcome move, the FDA has committed to re-examining the potential dangers associated with as substance called Bisphynol A or BPA, which is contained in the plastic (#7) used in the lining of some food cans.

The Willy Street Grocery Cooperative has been monitoring and providing information about BPA in some vendors' canned foods and we are encouraging those vendors to to refrain from using BPA products. Until an alternative is introduced, we have continued to seek out new producers who refrain from using BPA in their packaging.

The recent update to our ongoing monitoring of BPA use by our vendors can be found here.
