Current Mask Policy and Capacity Limits

October 15, 2022:

Our co-op’s working membership recently voted to revise our mask policy. This was determined through ranked-choice voting and will be implemented starting Saturday, 10/15. We will revisit this policy and take another vote in January 2023.

Current policy:

  • Capacity: 6 people (shift workers and shoppers combined)
  • Handwashing/sanitizing: required
  • Masks required on entry for the *first hour every day AND as required by any member during their shift.

*Current hours:
Monday: 12 – 8PM
Tuesday: 12 – 8PM
Wednesday: 4 – 8PM
Thursday: 12 – 8PM
Friday: 12 – 8PM
Saturday: 1 – 6PM
Sunday: 12 -7PM

Grocery delivery and pickup:
The co-op is continuing to offer home delivery for high-risk individuals, including the elderly, pregnant, and immunocompromised. A few of our working members are volunteering to deliver groceries to those who live within a 1-mile radius of the co-op; depending on the weight of the groceries and the distance, there may be a fee to help cover cab fare. We are also offering shoppers the option to pre-order groceries for pickup. If interested, please email produce@4thstreetfoodcoop.org.


We’ll continue to post further updates. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and support.
