Working together • works the family... in the cprnmunity. The farm family is Iilcia miniature Co-operative.. Each person has his niche and his job to do. When everyone works together. . things get done. Over 65 years ago the original CO-orieratiiie movement was an extension of this spirit of co-operation from family to community. When neighbour helped neighbours, . . barns got built ' . fields were ploughed . . . crops were harvested. Then when farmers had problems getting the things they needed . . . fertilizer, feeds and seed. • from existing sbutces, they got together and formed their own organizations to purchase and distribute the supplies they required — and to market the food they produced. Today, CO-OPS'are more than ever a part of the community and of the farnily, providing a wide variety of, goods and services such as home heat, hardware, appliances, lawn and garden products, work clothes, animal feeds; seeds, fertilizers, farm and building supplies . . as welt as helpful staff with lots of know-how. Andyihile anyone can shop at a CO-OP, you benefit more by. becoming a member of the Co-opetMive fat iiy. In the past 10 years, for • instance, 80,000 Members have shared close to $16.rnillion in patronage returns. We're proud of this record and our service to the families arid communities in Ontario.
