Uh Uh,
I realize the DESC building is controversial to some in the neighborhood. I don’t believe the frustrations should transfer to the co-op like this. You are implying something about the connection between us and the DESC that is confusing to me. Are you saying we did something unpleasant? Individually and as a group, we strive towards honesty and are working quite hard to fill a need in this community. I am sad and frustrated by this comment. Have you attended one of our meetings lately? Have you contacted us with your concerns? I encourage you to do so. We meet the 4th Monday of the month, 6:30pm at the library. You can also email us at delridgegrocery.com
I do ask though that you refrain from making vague statements attacking our credibility, especially without giving us a chance to first address the issue with you.
mariem – Thanks! Your comment is appreciated. Some of our volunteers come from outside the immediate community as small grocery co-ops offer an intriguing response to our current economic climate.

Nice concept but wrong building. Really bad juju that DESC building has and the collaboration the DPC has had with the DESC is unpleasant, and that is being kind. Find a different space and I am onboard, otherwise, uh-uh. There are a lot of other people who want nothing to do with the DPC for the same reasons. Karma, karma, karma………watch out for it.

What a great concept- congrats delridge residents for making this a reality. Though my neighborhood has plenty of grocery stores (some very expensive), I would much rather be part of a true community co op where good, fresh food would be Affordable.
