Suggestion Box

Compiled by Michelle Calderone

Q. It would be great if there could be times when a member is assigned to the kid area so we can shop while kids play!

A. It would be nice for us to do that; but alas, we’re unable to provide childcare because we lack insurance and a license.

Q. What happened to corn tortillas?

A. We have been trying to get more. Our distributor is out of stock. They are unavailable at this time.

Q. Please begin offering Walker’s shortbread cookies again! Thanks!

A. They are currently unavailable to us.

Q. Is there any chance we could carry organic golden raisins in addition to the "brown" ones? Either in bulk (ideally) or prepackaged? Thanks!

A. Golden raisins maintain their color through the addition of sulfur dioxide. To the best of our knowledge, this is not part of an organic certification. Please let us know the manufacturer or bring in a package if you know of an organic golden raisin on the market.

Q. Why on earth are we selling high fructose corn syrup sweetened soda? (Blue Sky). H.F.C.S. is linked to the growing epidemic of diabetes in the U.S.

A. We are providing a choice for our customers who requested Blue Sky.

Q. Lightlife BBQ grillers are delicious. I haven’t seen them lately.

A. Sorry, the BBQ flavor is discontinued. The only flavor we can get is lemon.

Q. Can we carry Natracare organic feminine products? Thanks!

A. We have them. They are on the top shelf above shampoos in HABA.

Q. Would it be possible/cost efficient to make "key tag" member cards?

A. We can do this on an individual basis. Ask Nate. If there is enough demand, we’ll make it a regular thing.

Q. How about a small selection of bumper stickers/decals that go with the coop philosophy—i.e., "support organic farming" or even cool decals for the Coop itself?

A.
We are reluctant to devote space to bumper stickers at this time. Have you tried the Social Justice Center? They sell them and need your support.
