Vision : Goal :
We envision a new economic system within the Linden community that creates living wage jobs, builds wealth, and reduces food insecurity while employing and empowering the most vulnerable in our communities- who are often marginalized from workforce programs. In our vision, worker-owned socially driven businesses will lead this change.

To create a worker-owned food hub cooperative in the Linden neighborhood, in which the decisions are made by the employees (owners) and guided by shared values around community needs. The One Linden Cooperative will leverage the goals of local institutions, specifically around local food procurement, to cement lasting partnerships that support local job creation and community wealth building.
The One Linden Cooperative goals are to increase economic and social outcomes while recognizing the link of both to health of our environment. Local and regional food is a pathway to a balance of all these dimensions that support sustainable health for people across communities. |
The One Linden Cooperative will be a resident worker-owned business such as a food processing |
