The Hanover Consumer Cooperative Society, based in Hanover, NH, recently announced the opening of its fourth store, across the border in White River Junction, Vermont.

"The Co-op is excited to be joining our friends at the Upper Valley Food Co-op as members of the White River Junction, Vermont, community. For years, cooperatives as a group have been working together to create a more vibrant, more cooperative, and more locally owned regional economy. This most recent cooperative partnership in the unique and creative community of White River Junction, Vermont, spotlights what can be accomplished when cooperatives work together for the benefit of a community as a whole."
