What's New?What's New?One Step Closer to a second store!OPEN LETTER TO WILLY STREET CO-OP OWNERS 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 BondsWhat is an Owner Bond? Special Board of Directors Meeting - UpdatedThank you to all who have submitted comments, concerns and questions regarding our announcement of the selected location for Willy West. The response has been incredibly positive, and we are appreciative of those who have pledged to buy Owner Bonds, shop at that location and/or become Owners (for those who aren't already). We have answered some questions that were posed and are working on responding to others. There will be a special meeting of the Board of Directors to discuss these responses and, potentially, sign the lease for the University Ave site. This meeting will be held on Friday, 26 March 2010 at 6pm at the Willy Street Co-op, in the Community Room. This meeting is open to Owners. » Willy Street Co-op's 11th Annual T-Shirt Design Contest Rules

Local Staff Picks Dani Rothman – Grocery Dept. Hidden Springs Creamery “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 “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.” Now serving breakfast in the Deli every day!Monday-Friday, 7:30am-9:30am
