The Future of Co-Op

We are here…

  • Find our "Founding Farmers"

    Find a few farmers and maker who share the vision and begin the proof of concept phase.

  • Build the Marketplace

    We want to grow Co-Op into a nationwide network of local and regional producers so as many people as possible can access locally grown food and locally made goods.

  • Begin working with people all over the country

    We want Co-Op to be an additional revenue stream for small and medium sized farmers and craftspeople to sell their goods without the middlemen.

  • Become a true "co-op" business model

    The only way “Co-Op” can keep local farmers and craftspeople at the heart of all decisions is if those are the folks making the decisions. Once Co-Op is generating enough revenue, the business wil be restructured so that it belongs to the people who use it.

How Will We Get There?

  • Our network of sellers is the most important aspect of the app. There are millions of cottage industry farms and other craftspeople all over America who produce incredible food and other goods.

    We individually vet each producer before adding them to the platform and try to earn their loyalty with benefits like a 1% drop in processing fees for each year you sell with us until you reach 5%.

  • With the co-op purchase model, you can access bulk pricing by meeting the same order minimums grocery stores and restaurants have to meet. This means the Co-Op app is perfect for people who:

    • Want to meet the people who grow their food

    • Want access to cheap healthy food

    • Want to support local businesses

    • Are looking for alternative ways to save money on the food they need

    • Don’t mind driving to a farm to pick up a couple dozen eggs on a weekend morning

    It’s time to reconsider if convenience really is all it cracked up to be.

  • Co-Op was created with a simple hope: that buying food could feel human again.

    We imagine a world where finding fresh, local food isn’t just convenient, it’s communal. Where a farmer shares what they’ve harvested, and a group of neighbors comes together to make it worth the trip. Where a handful of people go in on a bulk order, someone volunteers to pick it up, and a simple exchange becomes a moment of connection.

    Co-Op is more than a marketplace. It’s a modern-day community bulletin board: a place where local farmers and makers can share what they have, and where communities can rally around it. It turns everyday purchases into shared experiences, bringing people closer to their food and to each other.

    When we buy together, something shifts. Food becomes fresher. Prices become fairer. And strangers start to feel a little more like neighbors.

    That’s the future we’re building one co-op at a time.
