It seemed like eternity for some of us, but the Prairie Food Co-op finally opened its doors on July 9th in Lombard. As the first food co-op in DuPage County, it has been 13 years in the making and is still a work in progress. After the ribbon cutting, with Jerry and Kathy Nash holding the shears, the crowd rushed in to shop.
The store’s general manager is developing relationships with local vendors, but you may expect a lot of fresh organic produce, a bulk bin section, Halal meats, and much more. We celebrate the persistent hard work and achievements of the co-op organization, and look forward to shopping in the store. We also celebrate the commitment to community health by providing good food and the co-op’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
