I've been working on this #coop brewery project in #BTV for coming up on 5 years, and I keep having realizations that bits of foundational #solidarityeconomy infrastructure are required to get us where we need to go.
A two years ago, it was the need for the co-op investment club to start building a friendly capital base. This morning, I realized we need to pull together a Real Estate Investment Co-op to potentially secure a desirable space.
We'll get there eventually... 😩
@mattcropp Cool! Co-op brewery, eh? You're giving me ideas...
@ross There are a number of #CoopBreweries up and running at this point in the US; Black Star in #Austin was the first, followed by Fair State in #Minneapolis and Flying Bike in #Seattle, and there's at least a half-dozen more...
@mattcropp I don't know of one yet in the DC area...
@mattcropp We need coop money, regardless of what anti-blockchain and anti-money people have been trained to believe.
