I recently spent a week visiting my sister and her husband in the beautiful Palouse. They are members of your Co-op, and I read a few copies of your great monthly newspaper. The articles were all helpful, informative and interesting. Some just made me want to “get out there” and farm! We also made several trips to your store and I loved it. Everyone there was friendly and looked as if they really enjoyed their jobs. We had some delicious bean soup one day, and a yummy raspberry-chocolate chip scone another time. Kudos for a healthy and invigorating endeavor! I wish we had a similar thing going here in the North Georgia Mountains. Carol B. Turner, Ellijay, Georgia |

At a recent Moscow Food Co-op Board of Directors meeting, I made a presentation on living wage. According to the Northwest Job Gap Study, a living wage allows someone to pay their bills, with something left over. It is not minimum wage or a poverty wage. The formula for a living wage is base wage + benefits = living wage. To calculate the living wage we used a model designed by CDS Consulting Group. This model helps us calculate living expenses for Latah County, and then compare our wages and benefits against those expenses. |

Hello, readers. This is my debut writing for the volunteer page. Todd Broadman has written many wonderful profiles for years, but he has moved on to new things, and I will be taking his place. I am excited for the opportunity to try something new and was lucky to have Stacy Pettitt, who is bright and cheerful, as my first volunteer interview. Stacy's volunteer job includes organizing and running the Mamas and Papas group, which meets on Wednesday mornings at 9:30 in the Co-op Deli, and writing about the activities of the group. Mamas and Papas is mostly for new parents and parents-to-be. The focus of the group is lifestyle and wellness. Stacy brings in speakers to educate parents on a variety of issues. Recent topics included healthy cleaning and cosmetic products, homeopathy and your family, acupuncture for children, and the dangers of plastics. |
