Seward Co-op SEED program picks FMR for February!

February is a great month to shop at the Seward Co-op in Minneapolis — all month long your shopping can benefit your river! Shoppers can donate to FMR straight from the checkout line by either rounding up their total purchase or specifying an amount to add to their grocery bill. As the Seward Co-op's website explains:

Throughout our 40-year history, Seward Co-op has been committed to giving back to our community. In 2011, we introduced a new way for customers to deliver on this committment. The SEED is an opportunity to make charitable donations on an ongoing basis, during your transactions at the register.

SEED is focused on organizations that share our commitment to a healthy community and/or support our P6 initiative — products that are local, cooperatively-owned/non-profit, and small farmer/producer. Through the SEED donation program, customers can donate to a different recipient every month. Choose to either "round up" your total purchase amount or specify an amount you'd like to add to your grocery bill.
