Beginning in late 2023, dozens of community members met and organized, creating Three Rivers Revival. The concept grew that we could "engage members for a thriving coop." We established goals for our group's effort and facilitated dialogue in the community regarding concerns and hopes for our cooperative.

Now it is late 2025. Two years and significant effort later*, we have reached a conclusion. We perceive that Three Rivers Market's current board and general manager choose to view Three Rivers Revival as a boogeyman rather than acknowledge our positive intention. Rather than continue to be the scapegoat for whatever ails them (and being blamed for statements and actions of random, unknown individuals), we choose to disband our loose organization of members. Moving forward, individuals should participate and engage with Three Rivers Market however is appropriate for them rather than as affiliated with Three Rivers Revival. We encourage all to be respectful in all interactions.

We hope there will be a better opportunity to engage with Three Rivers Market in an organized group once again in the future. Our focus and goals remain here on our homepage below for record of our approach and intention.
