Owner Growth Timeline Heats Up!

Help us reach our October Goal of 300 Owners

We have a potential location!

We are excited to announce our potential location for our grocery store! We hope to be part of the Tapestry Square Project
being built by the Inner City Christian Federation at the corner of S. Division and Wealthy.
This location meets all of our criteria for a great location in central GR. 

​This is only a potential location because we must grow from our current 278 owners into a co-op of at least 1000
owners by the end of 2020 to meet the construction timeline of ICCF. At this point we do not have a written agreement
with them. They are supportive of our efforts to grow our co-op and be a part of their project. 

Now it is up to you and the rest of our community, the folks who care about this project, to make this location a reality!

Our food co-op needs you!
Now is the time to join this dynamic group of visionaries and become a founding owner of the Grand Rapids Food Co-op Initiative. To build a 10,000 square foot store we must have at least 1,000 owners join the co-op. Your involvement will help make the co-op a reality!

Your share matters!
​A one-time equity share is $250 per household.  Invest in the co-op by paying your equity share all at once, or pay over 10 months by sending $25 each month (plus a $1-per-month transaction fee). We also offer a Food For All share amount of $25 to enable any household to become an owner. We also offer scholarships to those who need the financial support to become an owner. 

You Can Attend an Outreach Circle Meeting!
​Meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month from 7-8:30 pm, on Zoom. Email grfci.info@gmail.com for the link. All are welcome, co-op owners and those who are interested in knowing more about us.

Want to get involved but not available on Wednesdays? Please fill out one of the forms below and we'll be in touch. You can also like us on Facebook and share our news with your friends and family. ​

Too busy to get involved? You can still become an owner and show your support for a food co-op in Grand Rapids!
