Description:

In 2002 the owner of High Street Organics decided she wanted to sell the business. A private sale was not an option and the business was not of sufficient value to attract either a large chain or a buyer able to move into the area. Another concern was whether a new owner would provide organic produce to the local community as they had done before. She decided to offer the business to customers and, with the support of Somerset Food Links, a group of actively involved volunteers was formed into a co-op.
