That’s Rad is celebrating National Co-op Month for October! Host Anastasia saw this sacred month as an opportunity to talk about the importance of being a co-op in a world full of for-profit businesses. The perfect case study showed up in the form of Nick Managan of Cabot Creamery Cooperative. Nick and Anastasia discuss how even though many consumers do not realize Cabot is a co-op, the cooperative principles have shaped their farming and business practices since 1919. Listeners will hear how Cabot’s cooperative status impacts it’s farmer owners, the communities they live in, and their consumers (that’s you!). It’s a half an hour about cheese and co-ops--do you really need another reason to listen?
Speaking of co-ops, the Littleton Food Co-op is Littleton, New Hampshire’s first and only community owned market. We are filled to the brim with your favorite local produce, meats, cheeses, craft beer, bulk foods, and more. Whether you are a vegetarian, vegan, omnivore, or cheese-avore like That’s Rad’s host Anastasia, the Littleton Food Co-op is the place you want to be! Come say hi sometime--we’re just off Exit 41 in Littleton. All are welcome!
