Devra Gartenstein, Founder of Patty Pan Cooperative (Interview 46/100)
Today we have Devra Gartenstein, Founder of Patty Pan Cooperative in Seattle, Washington. I found her through Local Yokels (Owner Amber Whittenberg was on episode 44). Patty Pan Cooperative is a local farmers market business whose food is also found through Local Yokels. This is a worker owned cooperative business model functioning like a small mini-democracy in its function. She’s a bit of an expert in entrepreneurship & worker cooperatives. She also has a background in philosophy which we talk about along with her take on community as well as her advice for starting out, staying afloat, and staying stable.
