Sunday, February 21, 5pm to 7pm
Come shop starting at 4pm!

Plus: A Member Outreach Cell-Phone-A-Thon! That night, we will also have an hour-long cell-phone-a-thon to reach out to our members, reminding them to stay involved and support the COG!  Please bring a cell-phone. We’d love it if every member makes at least 5 phone calls. We’ll have a script for anyone who wants one.  Thank you!!

Come Early and Shop! FACT: If every COG member starts buying $75 of groceries every month, the COG will become a thriving community  grocery cooperative!  Shopping on Feb. 21 will be from 4pm to 7pm.

Alexis Harte will provide the entertainment at the COG on December 13!

Tis the season
To be freezin’
But wait,
Not so in Berkeley.
Instead we’re cool
Checking out the fish pool
Watching aquaculture
Fish swim perkily.
Come for the cheer
From far or near
As we celebrate
Holidays galore
With food and art
Music with Harte
And Sweet desserts
Who could ask for more?
(poem by David Skolnick)
