Chippendale Food Co-op to open in Kensington Street

    NEWS CHIPPENDALE FOOD CO-OP TO OPEN IN KENSINGTON STREET

    The Chippendale Food Co-operative will set up shop in Kensington Street in October, in space provided free by Frasers Property. The Co-op’s mission is to create the opportunity for the people of Chippendale to regularly purchase fresh, healthy produce directly from small producers within the Sydney basin, or the closest possible location. The Co-op’s 2008 Food for the Future Fair was a great success, prompting the expansion of the group’s thriving local food distribution network. Pending Council approvals, the Co-op’s base will soon be in Kensington Street, just next door to FraserStudios art space, and will be launched at a celebratory community street fair on 24 October.
