"We Want a Co-op!"

Northeast Greensboro residents deserve a high quality grocery store that serves their needs for good food at an affordable price and dignified jobs that pay a living wage.

Together, neighbors from the community, as well as supporters from across Greensboro, are building their very own cooperatively owned grocery store - the Renaissance Community Coop!

We want a store that sells real food, is within walking distance for many neighborhood residents, returns surplus money to the community, and contributes to the health and wealth of our community.
