Dear Seward Co-op Community,

Seward Co-op will be closed on Fri., Jan. 23, in solidarity with the Day of Truth and Freedom. Employees scheduled to work that day will be paid.

As a cooperative, we believe our shared labor, time, and economic participation are powerful tools. Along with communities across Minnesota and the rest of the Twin Cities Co-ops, we are taking unified action with no work, no school, and no shopping to show we will not quietly endure fear and violence in our communities.

This coordinated statewide pause reflects our commitment to democratic action, mutual responsibility, and concern for our communities. Acting together is one way we live our cooperative values. We stand with those calling for justice and demand that ICE leave Minnesota now.

In cooperation,
Seward Co-op Leadership Team
