There was a discussion about a lack of a tacoma food co-op today on facebook, i tried to steer people to the website and here to the blog, but maybe a facebook page would help?

I second that... FB page would be great.

We are in the process of putting up a proper web site. Things are going quickly with it and hopefully it'll only be a couple more weeks. After it's up, we'll re-address the email database issue and we will also try to set up paying for memberships through the web site. After that, I agree that a proper facebook and myspace page should be created. Be sure to keep checking in with the blog and I'll let you know how things are going.

There is a face book page, it's just not very current. There has been an unofficial update posted. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=25935089600
