Discover Co-ops

Inspired by the folk tale of Stone Soup, the Stone Soup Registry envisions a new way to support emerging co-operatives. By pooling small contributions of expertise, mentorship, resources, and connections, established co-ops and supporters can help new ventures overcome start-up challenges and put the principle of co-operation among co-operatives into action.

We often talk about climate change at a planetary level. Headlines focus on rising temperatures, shifting weather patterns, and global emissions targets.
