Margaret Cooley

Board President, ‘26

FCC member-owner since 2004In a time of such divisiveness in our country and world, and in our own local region, what a radical thing it is for a community to collectively own its own grocery stores! To have as core values a regenerative and sustainable local food system and economy: providing healthy food, paying decent wages, supporting farms and other vendors. As we create and maintain nourishing systems for our individual physical selves, for the interconnected networks of our community, and for our planet as a whole, we feed our bodies and our souls through cooperation.
