Abstract | The collection contains the operational, administrative, and financial records of the Durham Co-Op Grocery, a cooperative natural foods grocery store for local consumers and a community center in Durham, N.C. The records are chiefly from the 1980s to the early 2000s and include articles of incorporation, budgets, payrolls, personnel records, tax permits, reports, grant files and other fundraising materials, vendor files, police reports for vandalism and robberies, food stamp program permits, inventories, minutes of board and membership meetings, membership and staff policy documents, facility files, newsletters and other printed materials, correspondence with Co-op members, membership surveys, and marketing files. Materials reflect the Co-op's interests in alternative approaches to food production and distribution and include information about agricultural laborers, genetic engineering, local organic growers, recycling, and the impact of hurricanes on food production. |
