Each October, cooperatives all across America celebrate the role, accomplishments and contributions of our nation’s cooperatives.
The annual celebrations play a key role in promoting cooperatives to our members, the public and policy makers. Through a combination of media outreach, member education, and interaction with policy makers, co-op month events help raise the visibility of our cooperatives, and improve public understanding of cooperatives…

While questing to put together some kind of “History of Sherwood”, I have been unearthing some pretty awesome stuff. The coolest treasure so far is an original Students’ Cooperative Association yearbook from 1946! I came across an online vendor’s listing for the book while doing research on the SCA and bought it! It has illustrations and pages for all the original coop houses including the “Sherwood Forest”!
Another pretty sweet find is the 1949 book, Get Your Own Home The Cooperative Way by Elsie Danenberg, which has a great chapter on the SCA.
