The 2023 @northcountryfiberfair event "Fiber Speed-Dating for Producers, Buyers, and Processors" is sponsored by Coteau Community Market, because local farmers raising meat animals and seed/oil plants that are also sources of fiber need to be able to sell all of what they raise (wool as well as meat, bast fibers as well as seeds) in order to be a sustainable business. This event is a first step in organizing a fiber shed for our region. Join the conversation at 7 pm on Friday, Sept. 15th. Tickets can be purchased at the info table.

Twenty-seven new members buys this flour mill.
No more stale, rancid flour that’s been in a warehouse for months! You won’t believe the taste difference in items made with freshly ground flour. Wheat berries store much longer than flour, so no food waste, either.
Eventually we’ll get a second mill to use only for gluten-free foods.

Fourteen new members buys this shelf kit of portion-control, gravity-fed bulk bins. (We need eight to start with.)
This new style of bulk bin eliminates food waste, mess, and contamination. Customers get a set amount per turn of the dial, rather than the free-for-all, open-faucet style previously available, and hands never touch the food in the bins.

Seven new members buys four of these compact carts.
These compact and sturdy two-level carts will fit in the market’s small space very well.
(We tried to buy Shopko’s when they went out of business, but they were already sold. Do you have some available and in good repair? Leave a comment!)

Time for a bulk order!
Please reply to this post or send an email ASAP if you`re interested in participating in a bulk order for steak burger, grains, and beans. (And possibly spring greens.) We need to order a certain amount of each to make it worth the time and effort, so the board is trying to gauge interest first.
You can check out what will be available to order on the website. YOU CANNOT ORDER RIGHT NOW. We just need to know if you`d like to participate and roughly how much you`ll get.
Anyone can participate in this bulk order, not just members. Though if you`re participating, why aren`t you a member yet? :)
