The Arroyo Food Co-op surpassed its Indiegogo fundraising goal this weekend, garnering $11,291 to be used to paint the exterior of the co-op building.
The Co-op has also announced another Yard Sale Extravaganza at the store at 494 N. Wilson Avenue in Pasadena. The yard sale will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21, from 8 AM-3 PM. Early bird entry is at 7 AM with a $5 suggested donation. In a release to members, they say:
In addition to countless treasures looking for a home, there will be coffee served until noon (with our compliments), a lemonade stand, massages by Ann Waters, knife sharpening by Greg Marquez, and more! So even if you're not looking to buy anything, please stop by and hang out with us for a while--we'd love to see you!
