In order to include as many co-op members as possible, the Olympia Food Co-op’s Member Forum on the Israeli products boycott has been moved to Thursday, August 12th, from 6-8:30 at the Olympia Center. This date change allows us to secure a larger room for the Forum.
For more details about the Member Forum, stay tuned to this blog!
The Board of Directors of the Olympia Food Co-op recognizes that the decision to boycott Israeli products has put a strain on the organization, impacted staff, volunteers and the membership, and that they did not adequately prepare the staff or community for it. They are concerned by this impact on the community and dedicated to listening to member feedback. In addition to the Member Forum, members can direct comments to board@olympiafood.coop or call 360-357-1106 x13.
