Need a break from the inbox, the grocery list, or just the news cycle? We’ve got just the thing.
Join us for a laid-back, low-pressure hang with the Grand Rapids Food Co-Op crew at our June Social Hour, happening on Thursday, June 26, from 6:00 to 7:00 PM at City Built Brewing.
This is not a meeting. It’s not a fundraiser. It’s not a work event.
It’s just… people who care about good food and a better local food system hanging out over tacos and beers.
Why show up?
- You’re a co-op owner and want to meet more folks who are in it with you
- You’re curious about what this whole “community-owned grocery store” thing is and want to ask a few questions without pressure
- You’re into tasty Puerto Rican food with a twist (hello, tostones 👋)
- You could use a midweek vibe check with some good humans and great beer
Wait, what’s City Built Brewing?
Oh, only one of our favorite local spots! Located right along the Grand River in downtown GR, City Built Brewing specializes in craft beers and Puerto Rican-inspired eats that are seriously flavorful.
Grab a drink, snag a plate of their famous tacos or plantain-based snacks, and come say hey.
Who’s this for?
Everyone. Whether you’re a long-time member-owner, just signed up last week, or still trying to decide if the co-op is right for you, this is the perfect chance to connect — there’s no commitment required.
We’ll have a few co-op folks on hand to answer questions if you’ve got ’em, but mostly, it’s just about community. And snacks. And beer.

📍 City Built Brewing — 820 Monroe Ave NW #155, Grand Rapids, MI
