Fluffy visitor today as I recover from the bike accident I had over the weekend:

Nice little write up in the local paper about our #btv #RealEstateCoop on the eve of the two restaurant tenants opening: https://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/life/2020/11/03/burlington-cafes-community-investment-oak-street-co-op/6126649002/

Deets on the BiB beer initiative, if you happen to see the label where you are, as a lot of breweries are participating: https://blackisbeautiful.beer/

Canned some homebrew today with fellow Full Barrel Co-op members for a fundraiser for the Peace and Justice Center's racial equity program...

Big thanks to @ntnsndr for being a guest speaker on our #Vermont #CoopMonth virtual summit today.

🎉

The mural on the side of our #RealEstateCoop's first building is shaping up! Ready to be able to get dope Dominican food there starting at the end of the month... #btv

I feel like the green tomatoes in my garden are in an epic race against the clock at this point in the season, being in northern #Vermont and all.

I'm rooting for them...

About to head to a pop-up "preview" dinner for the two restaurants that will be opening as tenants of our #btv #RealEstateCoop at the end of October. Looking forward to some good Dominican food and a 🔥 open bar...

A worker-consumer #coop hybrid where all surplus goes to workers up to a living wage, then the remainder is divided with consumers at an escalating rate, with 90% of surplus above 2x living wage to worker members going to consumer members.

Just vibin', designing a worker collective/consumer co-op hybrid for bootstrapping early stage #coops.

As an alternative to our usual #Vermont #CoopMonth party, I want to organize a friendly charity benefit video game tournment that will get folks from different co-ops talking to each other.

Basically, I'm looking for a game that's fun, dead simple to learn by folks of diverse ages, and that could be played socially by the teams on a shared Zoom call.

Any suggestions?
