The whole Unilodge precinct is still a bit of a construction site, so here’s a visual guide to find the new Co-op premises. The location is 3 Kingsley St, opposite Toad Hall just off Barry Drive at the city edge of the Uni.  Here’s a map of the new location for the visual thinkers among us.

There is a bike rack and an additional (undercover) bike rack on the opposite side of the building. Within a month or two there will be a bus stop at the door. There is some on-street parking that is free outside of 9/5 on weekdays, and a small bay of parking with the same hours at Toad Hall. Most of the parking outside Toad is permit parking for residents, so be careful. There is more free parking after 5:30 on week days in nearby Watson St and McKay Gardens, and there’ll be some trolleys soon to get your purchases back to transport. Click on any of the following pictures to enlarge them.

It’s not that easy to spot just yet …

but as you get closer, you’ll see a reassuring sign. You’re in the right place!

Inside you’ll find the same delicious food and other products the Co-op is known for,

a place to pause and chat,

and have a cup of delicious tea. (Delicious coffee coming soon when the Cafe area kicks off. Really delicious coffee.)

There are lots of exciting things on the way, including next Friday’s clothes swap which is running from 12:30 (more details on Facebook.)

Anyone wishing to volunteer a little time for their extra discount should get in touch and find out what needs doing – we look forward to seeing you at our new Co-op!

Please see below for some info about happenings at the food co-op next. All should be heaps of fun so please come by if your free. We are also looking for volunteers to distribute these posters around campus this weekend, so please give us a hand if you can!

Looking forward to the start of a very fun year in our new space filled with loads of events like this.

Hope to see you there,

-Joe.

There are still many finishing touches to put on our new space between then and now, so please swing by and give us a hand if you are free!

Yours in cooperation,

-Joe.

If anyone has some excess garden produce to help us restock the co-op before it opens, we would love to sell it for you!
