Join us to help SPRoUT grow.

We are excited to invite you to our next public meeting on Saturday 19th September at 2:00 PM at the Friends Meeting House in Leicester. Whether you've followed our journey from the very beginning or are just curious to learn what a grocery workers' co-operative is all about, this meeting is for you. We're building a low-waste, community-focused wholefoods grocery store that is owned and run by workers, for the benefit of our neighbourhood.
