The Commons

A nice place to hang out, eat lunch, read the paper and talk with friends. You can also read customer comments (with our responses) and check out the flyers for community events and services.

Cob Wall
The Cob wall was the result of a free sustainable building materials workshop. Cob (literally “lump of clay” in Olde English) is a traditional construction technique from Britain that has been used for over 500 years but has also been the building material of choice since the rise of civilization. Actually Cob is made out of sand, clay, straw, and water that has been thoroughly mixed together. Building with Cob is similar to sculpting. The structures are hand made and have organic, free-flowing, curved walls. Once dried the curved walls are incredibly strong and create warm, comfortable living space. Click here for more information and photos.
Community Room
A community space available for rent for community group meetings, classes or events. There are applications for rental, food and non food events downloadable below in PDF form.
Food Related
Event Application form
Non-Food Related
Event Application form

Rental Application form
(You will need Adobe Acrobat to open either application.)
Note: The class listing calendar is not a complete schedule of events for the WSGC Community Room - it does not list private rentals. Contact Lynn to check if the room is available at a particular time. Subject to availability.
For Willy Street Co-op-sponsored events, check out our Event Calendar.
Also, Whenever the room is not in use, you can view the art exhibits (by local artists) that changes every other month.
The Courtyard
The courtyard in the front of the store has many uses throughout the year. It's a space for Avant Gardening's summer plant sales and Christmas tree sales, home of the Great Pumpkin Patch during Owner Appreciation Days, and a comfortable place to bring your smoothie or Kung Pao tofu (when the weather's nice).
Customer Service Desk

We're here to help! Visit or call the customer service desk for:

  • ownership applications
  • purchasing a gift card
  • questions about Co-op products and services
  • changing your address, phone number or e-mail for your records
  • tickets to some community events
  • ordering special products like seasonal gift baskets or turkeys
  • returns
  • lost and found
Kid's Area
An area where children can play with toys, read a book or draw on a chalkboard. This area is not supervised, so please don't leave your children there unattended!
Rain Garden
We created a rain garden in the area behind the Co-op. Rain gardens help keep the water in the ground rather than allowing it to run off roofs and pavement into the sewer. As the water soaks through the ground, it is also naturally filtered. Click here for more information.
