Greene Hill is one of a handful of 100% working food co-ops in the USA. Together we build community, keep our prices low and our food quality high.
Greene Hill Food Co-op reaffirms its commitment to oppose racism in any of its forms. This is in accordance with our Anti-Racist and Rooted in Community Guiding Principles, which celebrate the racial diversity of our members and communities.
Much thanks to Leila Darabi for writing a fantastic article in Park Slope Food Coop’s Linewaiters’ Gazette that contextualizes our current situation and drive for new members. The article includes quotes from our General Manager Joel and Board Members and shows that together we can build a thriving community.
Meditating for Black Lives, a local organization that supports community efforts to heal oppression using principles and practices of various meditation traditions, hosted their very first meditation session in Herbert von King Park last June. “We were just going to meditate and think and hold this space for each other in light of the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd and countless others. That’s what was going to happen,” says founder Brittany Micek.
That’s not exactly what happened. 2,000 people showed up on that summer morning to what would be the first of many community meditations in Bed-Stuy and Brownsville.
Aukstā Zupa, which means “pink soup,” is a very common dish throughout the little Baltic country of Latvia on these hot summer days. It’s a colorful, refreshing and healthy feast of summer ingredients.
A: We are a group of neighbors in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Clinton Hill, Fort Greene and surrounding areas who work together to run a not-for-profit cooperative grocery store.
A: A not-for-profit cooperative grocery store is a grocery store that is owned and run by the people who shop there, called member-owners. Because cooperative member-owners pool their resources and contribute most of the work, overhead stays low, prices are lower, and the quality of the products remains high.
Our recipes are delicious. Submissions from our Brooklyn food co-op members can be found here. Not sure what to make for dinner? Take a look in this section for ideas, grab your reusable bag, and head to the Co-op!
