Fruit co operation in Geraldton shows shared supply
A Geraldton man describes how a small society of twenty members pooled fruit to stabilize supplies and reduce losses. Each family paid six shillings weekly, arranging with a grower for weekly fruit deliveries and a small selection of assorted fruit. The scheme cut waste and ensured about ten pounds of fruit per family per week, suggesting scale cooperative demand could benefit all parties if middlemen adjusted arrangements.
