A new co-operative enterprise is launching in Prestwich this Friday.

The “Village Greens” shop will have a ribbon cutting at 12 noon. Customers “will be able to buy fantastic organic fruit and veg, local beers, organic meat, delicious deli goodies, wholefood staples and fabulous chilled and frozen produce. The most mouth wateringly yummy fresh bread will be arriving at 12pm so make sure you are there to get your hands on some!”

According to their website, the co-operative hopes “to be in the centre of our community and will be a place where you can enjoy coming to shop in a bright, welcoming environment with great service from friendly, knowledgeable staff. We want to help tell the story behind where your food comes from, helping you make an informed choice for what you buy.“
