During March, Linden Hills Co-op is joining with ten other Twin Cities food co-ops to raise donations for Minnesota FoodShare, and we need your help! Your donations stay in your community to stock local food shelves and benefit those in need. Linden Hills Co-op will give $10 to FoodShare for every new member that joins during our March membership drive—there’s not a better time to show your support for the community!

More information is available at the co-op and at www.themix.coop. Or visit Minnesota FoodShare’s website.

Please pre-register; $12/$10 members of any Twin Cities food co-op. Call 612-922-1159 to register.
