November Updates

So, how’s it going? Pretty darn well!

• We’ve found our general manager and will be making a formal announcement shortly!
• We are nearing 1200 owners!
• We hosted multiple events in October to continue engaging with our community
• Our farmers market continues to be successful and even grow a bit, supporting the launch of several local small businesses in the past year
• We’ve launched a wide-scale survey to gauge the needs of our South Bay shoppers. Complete it today!
• After receiving targeted grant funding, we’ve hired a PR firm to support our fundraising and outreach
• With additional targeted grant funding, we’ve been working with a branding firm to design our store logo, signage, and “vibe” using all the feedback you’ve provided over the last 2 years.
• We will have a website redesign shortly (we apologize for recent website issues)
• We recently were guests on a local podcast (in English) and news story (en Espanol). Look for us Friday morning at 6:30 a.m. on KUSI!
• We are still waiting on our electrical evaluation from SDGE. Construction cannot begin until this is complete.
• We have $1M in pending grant applications
• We are feeling confident that we will meet our fundraising goal and be able to proceed with construction early next year
