Berkeley Student Food CooperativeThe mission of the Berkeley Student Food Cooperative (BSFC) is to provide fresh, healthy, environmentally sustainable, and ethically produced food at an affordable price to Berkeley students. The BSFC will be a student-run cooperative natural and sustainable foods cafe and market. It will promote community building, social justice and environmental stewardship through the cooperative model. A cooperative is a business or organization run by democratic decision where all workers participate in equal and equitable environment. The BSFC will utilize the cooperative cost-saving model to offer our customers 20-40% savings on healthy, sustainable, delicious food. The Berkeley Student Food Cooperative will be an expansion of the already existing ASUC Sustainability Team "The Local", which provides affordable sustainable food items to the UC Berkeley campus.
The BSFC is designed with the same structure as The Local produce stand and will source from local sustainable farmers, giving UC Berkeley a choice to eat healthy, fresh, and affordable food. We can provide quality fresh products at affordable prices because we source specifically from local family and small farmers. The BSFC is the business model for the 21st century; it is based on financial stability and growth in this turbulent economy while maintaining our core mission and values. We highlight the human element in the food system through true collaboration with local farmers, other cooperatives, and our community.
