Today was #FullBarrelCoop's annual meeting. Great conversation with the core member group, and the vote is now live to authorize the board to sign a MOU with the landlord and try to raise $50k for development costs.

Pivotal moment for the project I've been working on for 5 years this month...  ๐Ÿป

Just posted a note to the #FullBarrelCoop membership seeking to raise $5k in common co-op equity to fund a feasibility study of the space we're considering launching in.

There are 3 #coop #breweries in #Massachusetts:

- #DemocracyBrewing in #Boston
- #3cross in #Worcester
- Artisan Beverage Co-op in #Greenfield

I'm thinking of organizing a "fact finding" road trip to visit all 3 with some fellow #FullBarrelCoop members at some point in the next few months. Any #NewEngland #socialcoop and/or Fediverse peeps interested in tagging along?
