Eastside Will be CLOSED on Friday, January 23rd for Day of Action

On Friday, January 23, Eastside Food Co-op, Wedge Community Co-ops, and Mississippi Market Co-op+ River Market Community Co-op, and Seward Community Co-op will be closed in solidarity with the Day of Truth and Freedom. Employees scheduled to work that day will be paid.

As a cooperative, we believe our shared labor, time, and economic participation are powerful tools. Along with communities across Minnesota, we are taking unified action with no work, no school, and no shopping to show we will not quietly endure fear and violence in our communities.

This coordinated statewide pause reflects our commitment to democratic action, mutual responsibility, and concern for our communities. Acting together is one way we live our cooperative values. We stand with those calling for justice and demand ICE leave Minnesota now.
