Ah, memories! As a Baylor student I read Lappe, became vegetarian, and joined a Waco food buying co-op (we drove to Austin for pick-up). In Boston I joined the Hungry Grad Students (HGS) Co-op, then the Boston Food Co-op. Then, here to Austin in '76, shopping at Woody Hills, then joining Wheatsville, doing my hours there, helping move it up to Guadalupe, serving on its board, and working with Hightower when TDA certified Wheatsville as Organic Retail. Good times!
