<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s official&#8230;we are moving in!  If you have time, a truck or trailer, two hands, a big heart and want to have some moving fun then be sure to take part!</p></blockquote>
</div>
<p>On that note, we could really use YOUR help with the following:</p>
<p><strong>Friday (2/3/12) night fun (beginning at 5pm): </strong> Join Amber&#8217;s basement crew to scrape floors, sweep, mop and paint!  (240 Court St.)</p>
<p><strong>Saturday (2/4/12) fun 9am &#8211; ??: </strong> Meet Amber &amp; Tony again at 9am at the current site (542 1/2 Plumas St.) to get our office and backstock areas moved over.  Please come ready to pack boxes and move!  If you have a truck or vehicle good for moving that is great :)</p>
<p><strong>ALSO, AT 12:00pm on Saturday (2/4/12) in front of the new store the Reno News and Review is going to be taking pictures for the story that they are doing on the co-op&#8217;s opening next week.  We would like to fill this photo with our awesome member-owners!  Please come down for this photo even if you don&#8217;t have time to come at any other point.</strong></p>
<p><strong>ALSO ALSO on Saturday (2/4/12)</strong>, Join Jana Vanderhaar for an Saturday Edible Garden Workshop/work party at the new site (240 Court St.) from either 9am &#8211; 12pm or 1pm &#8211; 3pm</p>
<div>
<p><strong>Edible Landscape Soil Preparation and Irrigation Workshop</strong>  &#8211;  We&#8217;ll be double digging beds, amending and adding soil and compost, and installing drip irrigation.  We&#8217;ll also move the raised planters from the old Coop to the new, so some strong muscles and a pick up to haul these would be appreciated!  And we&#8217;ll sow cover crops in selected beds to build soil and add some quick green color to the landscape.  Please bring garden tools, gloves, water, and a lunch.</p>
<p><strong>Sunday (2/5/12) fun 9am &#8211; ??: </strong> Join Melissa&#8217;s crew at the new site to get the bulk and grocery shelving departments set up.  Please come ready to clean set up shelves, clean and organize.</p>
<p><strong>Tuesday (2/7/12), Wednesday (2/8/12) and Thursday (2/9/12) at 5:00am</strong>, please come and help all of us to take in our HUGE deliveries from our distributors and get them on the shelves and into the coolers!</p>
<div class="alert-message block-message info"><strong>UPDATE (02/07/12):</strong><br />
Today&#8217;s 5am delivery went well. Let&#8217;s do it again tomorrow!  There will be more coffee, graciously donated courtesy of Mark Trujillo at <a href="http://www.hubcoffeeroasters.com/">The Hub Coffee Roasters</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>And of course we&#8217;ll have loads more product to set in our amazing new home.  (Wow, it&#8217;s really coming along now.)</p>
<p>Additionally, Jana has requested volunteers to help plant trees tomorrow at 240 Court St. between the hours of 1-5pm. </p>
<p>There will be <strong>NO DELIVERY ON THURSDAY</strong> but we will be moving things all day from the old store to the new&#8230;. Come and hang!
</div>
<p><strong>THURSDAY (2/9/12):  THIS IS THE BIG PUSH! </strong> We are closing our store at 542 1/2 Plumas St.  Please show up at the old site at 9am to help us move EVERYTHING from this location to our new spot.  This is a call for ALL HANDS ON DECK&#8230;so if you&#8217;ve got an hour or two to give then join in the greatbasin-ness!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>New Co-op Hopes to Open on Friday, February 10, 2012</h3>
<p>Our co-op is now just a couple of weeks away from our hopeful <strong>soft opening on Friday February 10th, 2012!! </strong> Everyone involved has been hard at work installing the kitchen grease interceptor (last photo on the bottom right), the earthen cobb tree (last photo on the top right), our local handmade registers (middle bottom pic), painting our murals (left bottom), installing the irrigation system for the edible landscape plan (top left) and our massive coolers in the basement for Northern NV&#8217;s first ever regional local food distribution center (middle top)!!!  Click on images below to see more moving pictures.</p>
<p><a title="View the rest of the new co-op store construction photos on our Flickr stream!" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/greatbasinfoodcooperative/"><img src="http://www.greatbasinfood.coop/wp-content/themes/gbcfc/images/newsletter/gbcfc-mass-email-pix-jan-2012.png" alt="GBCFC New Store Pictures" width="459" height="186" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>It seems like the momentum and excitement is growing just as fast as the project expense list for miscellaneous items.  In order to get through final days and finishing touches that we need to complete this stage of our new co-op, we are calling upon our members and the community at large to help us find some of those tangible items.  Please take a look in your garage, your neighbor&#8217;s garage, you favorite local thrift store, habitat for humanity, craigslist, etc. and help us finish our community store by donating any of the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>Baskets for the produce area (funny, quirky, vintage, normal, whatever&#8230;)</li>
<li>An iPad for our Local Farmer Wholesale Distribution and Ordering Center (<a title="Learn more about DROPP" href="/2011/08/the-distributors-of-organic-local-produce-products-center-or-dropp/">DROPP</a>)</li>
<li>Used Washer and Dryer</li>
<li>Counters for the break-room area (6 ft x 2 ft deep)</li>
<li>10 ft of Cupboards</li>
<li>Metal lockers 12-24</li>
<li>Meeting Table 9 feet long</li>
<li>Chairs for our community cafe area</li>
<li>Dishes, silverware, cups and/or mason jars for the community cafe</li>
</ol>
<p>If you are able and/or willing to donate any of the above items that is great!  Or, if you have time to hunt for these items that is great too!  We DO NOT want folks to just start dropping off a bunch of items at the co-op.  Please send pictures, descriptions, or links (cragslist) to Amber Sallaberry &#8211; <a title="Please send pictures, descriptions, or links (cragslist) of any items on our wish-list that you might be able to donate" href="mailto:amber@greatbasinfood.coop" target="_blank">amber@greatbasinfood.coop</a>.  If you are interested in receiving a tax deductible donation receipt for your goods please be sure to include a receipt.</p>
<p>Thank you immensely&#8230;we are so close!</p>
<p>heart,</p>
<p>your co-op</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On December 14th at 6pm the Reno City Council will consider a proposal to rezone a portion of the UNR Main Station Farm light industrial. This land is ideally suited for what it already is, that is, agriculture and wildlife habitat. Local food and farming advocates are encouraging the Council to look to a different future for that property and refrain from building businesses on a flood plain, and ideally, zone the property agricultural and open space. Should the Council vote down this proposal or postpone this decision until a later time it would leave the door open for other plans that could be more beneficial to our community. It will also give our community more time to discuss and plan for healthier alternatives to the zoning. This will benefit the growing local food movement, future agricultural education for our youth and the sustainability of Wolf Pack Meats.</p>
<p>Please sign <a href="http://www.change.org/petitions/save-a-university-farm-from-development">THIS PETITION</a> opposing the rezoning of the UNR Main Station Farm.</p>
<p>We’re encouraging everyone to attend the meeting to show the City Council we the decision to reject the zone change. Please attend and fill out a public comment form to make your voice heard. No need to speak if you&#8217;d rather not, but your public comment form demonstrates the level of support.</p>
<p>5:30 &#8211; Arrive early to submit your Public Comment Form. They will not be accepted after 6 p.m. There will be a group of local food activists out front at 5pm helping people to fill out comments forms. You can either submit a comment card or sign up to speak for 3 minutes during the public comment section of the meeting.<br />
6:00 &#8211; Meeting begins<br />
Reno City Hall, Council Chambers</p>
<p>1 E. 1st Street, Reno (public parking garage next to CityHall)</p>
<p>PLEASE READ THIS VERY THOUGHTFUL LETTER IN OPPOSITION TO THE REZONING BY A VERY DEDICATED GBCFC CO-OP MEMBER-OWNER &amp; LOCAL FOOD ACTIVIST:</p>
<p>It’s Not Local Food without Local Farmland and a University Agricultural Program to Back It<br />
Farming in America is at a turning point. Rapidly rising global food demands, spiking food and fuel prices, and the ever-present threat of development are pressuring our farmers to squeeze the most out of their land or else leave.</p>
<p>We have been supporting our local farmers by buying locally at the Great Basin Community Food Coop and local farmers markets. We have joined CSAs and bought meat form local ranchers. We even go out to eat at local restaurants that are buying for local farmers.</p>
<p>The next important step to support our local farmers is to join efforts to protect the little farmland we have left in our community, such as the UNR Main Station farmland off McCarran and Mill Street. According to American Farmland Trust, we’re losing 2 acres of farmland to development every minute. The farms and ranches that supply local markets—those closest to urban centers—are the most at risk. Do you, as a community member, want to see the last remaining farmland in Reno turn into another box store development?</p>
<p>What’s unique about the 104-acre farmland is that it holds the floodwaters in times when the Truckee River overflows, thereby providing an important ecological function to filter the water and fertilizing the land. It functions as grassland for the research and teaching performed by the Rangeland Management program at UNR. It also provides a much-loved historic view corridor to the Truckee meadows, telling the story of why this flat, fertile land functions well as farmland and was chosen as such by pioneers. Shouldn’t this historic, agricultural and ecologically significant land be preserved for future generations?</p>
<p>The 104 acres of farmland that the UNR has annexed to the City of Reno is up for rezoning at the next City Council meeting, Wednesday, December 14h, at 6 pm. As a community, we are asking the City of Reno to postpone decision on this rezoning request. We ask UNR to work with us to develop a long-term sustainable plan for the entire farmland area at the Main Station, so that it can continue to provide the important flood acreage for our community, maintain the space for our land-grant UNR College of Agriculture, and preserve the last of our urban farmland, that speaks of the past and promises the future potential of our local food security.</p>
<p>With our combined vision, we can help keep agriculture viable in our community to continue providing the delicious foods, economic benefits and improved environmental quality we’ve all come to enjoy.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Jana Vanderhaar, concerned citizen</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Moving Update &#8220;What is taking so long?&#8221;</h2>
<div class="toc">
<p>The countdown towards our big MOVING date has begun!  Yes, I know that everyone has been eagerly awaiting an update and even more so, wondering what took so long!?!  The short answer:  we are moving from 500 sq ft into 7,000 sq ft.  The longer answer:  We made a very good decision to rebid our mechanical system and go with one that is much greener, cleaner and efficient, thus costing us less operational $$ in the long run.  This change out required revisions and new drawings for every other major system and we lost about 3-4 months on the project.</p>
<p>The great news is that all of our tenant improvement construction work has begun, we finally have a signed lease and we are also just days away from receiving our permit from the City of Reno.  On top of that, local artists have been working diligently on the hand painted mural and specialty bike wheel hand rails to complement our Edible Landscape Garden (coming spring 2012) and some of the other internal design surprises that we will be unveiling at our grand opening!  Check out these pics to see the latest work:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/greatbasinfoodcooperative/"><br />

<p>The goal is to have a soft opening at the end of January 2012 at the new store.  If everything stays 100% on track from now until the new year then I think we will achieve this.  We will be announcing a solid open date as we get closer, be sure to stay tuned by visiting our CO-OP ON THE MOVE web page.</p>
<p><strong>Thank you for your patience and even more so, YOUR SHARED EXCITEMENT!!</strong></p>

<h3>Updated Budget</h3>
<div class="toc">
Many of our member-owners saw the original budget in the moving prospectus that we published back in February 2011, there was a total of $508,305.50 for USES &amp; SOURCES.  As one can expect in these types of big moving projects, we have had to increase the budget almost 45% as actual contract bids came in, equipment costs, and the inherent costs such a large expansion.  On the up side of things, we have received another $20,000 in additional grants that we wrote, $15,000 more in member-loans, a $13,500 loan from Buck&#8217;s Plumbing and Heating and very recently we received a $50,000 donation!!</p>

<h3>How to help YOUR co-op offer lower prices to YOU</h3>
<div class="toc">
Did you know that your co-op purchases hundreds of organic, natural and GMO-free products through a national distributor called UNFI?  Yep, everything that we can&#8217;t source from local producers and farmers we find through distributors who sell the kinds of products that our members want.  UNFI is currently the nation&#8217;s leader in distributing wholesale natural goods&#8230;they sell to places like Whole Foods, Trader Joe&#8217;s, Raley&#8217;s Safeway, and your little neighborhood food co-op.  Due to the fact that all of the above mentioned national chain food stores have the ability to buy massive quantities of food and products for all of their individual store, they are able to negotiate VERY LOW costs from UNFI.  Whole Foods in fact has achieved the largest buying power in the United States for organic and natural goods through the UNFI distributor.  It is estimated that our little co-op pays approximately 25% &#8211; 35% more per item from the same distributor!</p>
<p>So, how do we compete?  The answer to that is a game plan strategy that we have been working on for over four years now.  Fortunately, there is a wonderful national group called the <a href="https://www.ncga.coop/" target="_blank">National Cooperative Grocer&#8217;s Association</a> (NCGA).  The NCGA helps small, independent co-ops across the nation stand together with one UNIFIED buying power through UNFI and various distributors.  NCGA has now achieved the second largest BUYING POWER for organics in the nation just behind Whole Foods.  Our co-op has goals of applying and being accepted into the NCGA organization.  However, in order to be accepted we need to reach $2,000,000 per year in gross sales!  The great news is that in our tiny little 500 sq ft. store on Plumas Street, we hope to finish the 2011 fiscal year with just about $1,000,000 in gross sales.  If all of our members decide to vote with their dollars at our new location on Court Street then we will reach the $2,000,000 sales mark in no time at all!  Please support your co-op in offering better priced goods for our entire community, come shop today!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seasons Greetings,</p>
<p>Two Important Updates:</p>
<p>*THE GREAT BASIN BASKET MADE ITS FINAL CSA DELIVERY FOR 2011 YESTERDAY.  This means that Fallon Farmers will NOT be making regular deliveries on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Please pre-calculate your local orders as early as possible to ensure timely delivery.  We will do our best to back-stock popular  items like winter squash, onions, and garlic as much as possible to make sure we can fill your orders.<br />
*If you would like to receive a produce order for this coming Friday morning- I need your order today by 4pm as Veritable Vegetable is closed on Thanksgiving.  If you have my number and text me before midnight, I will get the order in for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>CRITICAL WOLF PACK MEATS MEETING:</h3>
<p><strong>Thursday, October 27, 11 a.m.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Nevada Department of Agriculture, Conference Room<br />
405 South 21st Street, Sparks</p>
<p>Please plan to attend a meeting of the CABNR Advisory Board/Stakeholders for Wolf Pack Meats and the Main Station Farm. This is a <strong>CRITICAL meeting as the UNR Administration and a developer propose to take the most fertile land of the Main Station Farm and develop it into offices and homes. <span class="blue">Please forward this to interested parties.</span></strong></p>
<p>If you support sustaining Northern Nevada&#8217;s only full process slaughter, cut and wrap facility please come to this meeting! Wolf Pack Meats processes for five (5) of the six (6) local ranchers your Great Basin Community Food Co-op buys from. Buying meat from local producers ensures good raising practices. Your food co-op visits all of our ranchers to make sure their animals are raised in open pastures, fed grass or other high quality non-GMO feed (especially for pork), and free of added antibiotics and hormones. With only 4 major agro-corporate companies owning the majority of meat production in America, it is increasingly important for us to support and buy from our local ranchers. Over 70% of Nevada&#8217;s agriculture is alfalfa and beef&#8230;which the majority of is shipped out of our state, sold as stock, or fattened up in the Mid-West on GMO corn and soy, antibiotics and hormones (all of which have been proven to contribute to making people sick and an increase in weight when consuming these products!!). Not to mention the process requires a hefty amount of non-renewable energy inputs&#8230;shipping 1,000+ lb animals back and forth across the country!</p>
<p>If you eat meat but haven&#8217;t given it much thought, <strong>NOW IS THE TIME</strong> or else we risk using the only processing facility in Northern Nevada which allows local ranchers to sell to YOUR co-op! Sure, everyone is selling grass-fed beef these days but <strong>NO OTHER RETAIL STORE in Reno is SELLING NEVADA BEEF!</strong>! If the University of Nevada-Reno President, <a href="mailto:marc.johnson@unr.edu?Subject=Please%20Save%20Wolf%20Pack%20Meats!">Marc Johnson</a> cuts Wolf Pack Meats from the budget it will greatly impact our community&#8217;s ability to purchase local meat in anything smaller than a 1/4 cow at a time! People may think it&#8217;s no big deal now, but we do not want to wait until the USDA stops subsidizing the commercial meat market and we have to pay the real price for poisoned meat in America&#8230;or we continue our trend for the last few decades and allow <strong>big agro-corporate farms to put every small rancher out of business until we have NO ACCESS to fresh, high-quality, local meat.</strong></p>
<div class="quotealt">
<blockquote><p><strong>COME TO THE MEETING, TELL YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CO-WORKERS! If you can&#8217;t make it be sure to send your comments about this very important cause to UNR&#8217;s President MARC JOHNSON &#8211; <a href="http://www.greatbasinfood.coop/working-volunteers/petition-letter-of-support/">marc.johnson@unr.edu</a></strong></p></blockquote>
