The Wellspring Cooperative Network (WCN) connects co-op businesses to each other and to the Wellspring Cooperative non-profit in order to facilitate support, cooperation among cooperatives, relationship building and peer learning. We believe that a network structure enables all of our member cooperatives to be stronger and more resilient. In addition to a range of supports that Wellspring Cooperative provides members of the WCN, the co-ops directly support each other, for example in hiring workers from another co-op that needs to downsize (hopefully temporarily), sharing the use of a truck, and helping out to clean out and move a workshop.
