Who Owns your Grocery Store? Grocery stores exert considerable influence over the global food supply and in the communities we live. How do the largest grocers today maintain their grip on foodmakers, communities, and eaters? Author Jon Steinman offers a preview of the research that went into his new book and he recounts his experience as a food systems journalist that would eventually lead him to write a book about consumer-owned grocery stores (food cooperatives). Jon will share the amazing work food co-ops are doing in communities across the country.

Jon will be in MoCo (https://www.morrisvillecoop.com/events) on Monday, April 29 from 12:00pm - 5:00pm looking to meet you and talk about your co-op experience. He will be giving a free presentation about his book at River Arts, 74 Pleasant Street at 5:30pm. Stop in the store first, meet the author, grab a snack and them come hear what Jon has learned about "The Promise of Food Co-ops in the Age of Grocery Giants." https://grocerystory.coop/about-the-book.
