How do we decide what now products to pick up? We look at what's available and what space we have available. We ask ourselves the following questions to help us make a decision:
Is the product organic? Is it GMO-free? Does it contain meat or dairy products from factory farms? Does it taste good? Is it healthful? Is it too expensive for our market? Can our competition sell it for less than we can? Is it local, or from very far away? Is it available from our normal suppliers, or otherwise easy to obtain?
We are always open to suggestions from our member-owners.
