It's official: the Cooperative COOPMEGAS received final certification! Congratulations!

What's for lunch? Another successful food fair sponsored by the cooperative.

Co-op members put on a very successful "Feria" with food and games (the raffle was a big hit). The event made a profit and brought the community together.

Great digital poster for the upcoming Food Fair and raffle. Sponsored by the new cooperatve.

Garden Project participants received this plant to grow at home. What is it?

After three training sessions, cooperative members in La Gallina are preparing the soil to plant vegetables. This new project is creating a local experimental garden to promote healthy eating.

Community women completed a class to make a "chilero", commonly found on the dining table to spice up meals. Pickled carrots, cucumbers and ayote (squash)

A group of Minnesotans recently traveled to Nicaragua and had the good fortune of meeting with members of the new cooperatve in La Gallina.

Training the women of the newly formed cooperative how to manage their legal status, keep records/minutes, as well as the duties and rights of members.
