Willi Mae Reid Leads Hyde Park Co op Food Buying
Willie Mae Reid volunteers with Together One Community Food Buyers club to cut grocery costs for 25 members. The co op buys in large quantities, stores items at 1227 West Cabrini, and sells at prices about 15 percent lower than commercial stores. Miss Reid, a Prudential employee and TOC secretary, helps coordinate shopping lists and weekly orders for fresh produce meat and dairy for Saturday pickup.
