New Food Co-op Slated To Open At 825 Caton Avenue In March, Members Meeting This Monday

We love what the Flatbush Food Coop does for much of our community, but we know it can be a trek for some of our readers.

If you live closer to the Parade Grounds, there’s going to be a new food co-op opening up near you, at 825 Caton Avenue (between E. 8th Street and Coney Island Avenue), come March.

The Windsor Terrace Food Co-op (which, as many neighbors have pointed out, isn’t actually in Windsor Terrace) is slated to open on March 21 and will be a members-only operation, akin to something like the Park Slope Food Co-op.

If you’d like to have a say in what the new co-op offers, as well as what days it will be open, you can attend the first all-members meeting on Monday, February 2 from 7-8:30pm at Holy Name Parish Hall (245 Prospect Park West between Prospect Avenue and Windsor Place).

Prior to the meeting, members are encouraged to fill out this survey about the kinds of topics that will be raised during the February 2 gathering.

For more information about the gathering and the incoming shop, you can visit the co-op’s website. Or, if you have questions about becoming a member – or the co-op in general, you can send an email to windsorterracefoodcoop@gmail.com.

And let us know what you think, too! In the comments below, we’d love to hear what you want the co-op to be like once it’s up and running.
