UW Student Food Co-op Meeting
When: Wednesday, May 2nd – 6:00 pm
Where: Thompson 211 
The University of Washington Student Food Cooperative is a group of students dedicated to food justice and environmental sustainability on campus. Our goal has been to increase student agency in the campus food system, and more specifically to open a student-run, sustainable, cooperative cafe for the University community. If all goes to plan- we will have this cafe in the HUB next fall! 
In light of the rapid progress we’re making towards realizing this cafe, there are numerous and diverse opportunities for involvement (in organizing to create a sustainable social enterprise, in education and outreach, marketing and technology, culinary arts, finance, and anything else that excites you!), and to help guide the direction of the Co-op. Come find out more about our history and future plans, as well as ways you can help to build a more sustainable food future on campus on Wednesday, May 2nd at 6pm in Thompson 211. We hope to see you there!
