SAVE THE GOOD TERN’S REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS

The Good Tern‘s 20-year old refrigeration and freezer equipment is failing beyond repair – threatening the co-op and its ability to provide the fresh locally farmed produce, dairy and meat, and many other products that our community depends on.

A hard-won USDA grant gave us money to purchase this indispensable new equipment, but we need more funds to cover (rising!) construction costs of the new (big!) walk-in cooler/freezer as well as increased retail space that will serve our membership and other patrons for years to come. We need to raise over $150,000 to cover the cost of the project, and we’ll be accepting donations until the end of December 2024.

Many thanks to our fiscal sponsor, Cooperative Development Institute, for helping to make this campaign possible!
