From The Archives: East End Food Co-op, Vancouver SOUP, Groundswell

This is an episode of our From the Archives series, where shows that got lost in our private archives now get their chance to shine. Because of the changing nature of time, some information may be outdated. 

In this episode we’ll be doing a triple community showcase! The East End Food Co-op, Vancouver SOUP, and Groundswell are all local gems in the Vancouver co-operative community, and we’ll be talking to representatives of each!

From Vancouver East End Food Co-op we have:

  • Alice Macpherson – Long time member of East End Food Co-op (since its founding!)
  • Graham Anderson – President of the Board of Directors

From Vancouver SOUP we have:

  • On-the-ground correspondence from one of their community-funding events
  • Interview with the winners of that night’s showcase, and
  • Interview with Kerrie O’Donnell, Director of Vancouver SOUP and organizer of the event!

And last but not least, we get a quick overview of one of the monthly Groundswell Community events via live reporting, where we hear from organizers and attendees!
