One of the oldest food coops is in Park Slope Brooklyn, which is not rural but sure does have a bunch of hippies. https://www.foodcoop.com/ https://www.foodcoo

  That place is notoriously kind of a cult. I can see it from a place I frequent, and some of the staff at that place are co-op members. They occasionally engage in illicit gossip, any the co-op sounds awful. They also boast among their members several 60s era leftist terrorists, and weather underground hangers on. Wild place, but their apiary is cool.

    It's not a cult. Sure, there are busybodies pushing weird issues at the general assembly meetings, but I'd compare it to Trader Joe's if it were staffed by mostly volunteers who only work every 6 weeks - bit incompetent, but very normal.
