Join Shared Harvest and the Elgin History Museum on Wednesday May 21, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. for a journey through the history of the grocery business in Elgin, uncovering the roots of our local food systems and the future we’re building together.
Local historian Rebecca Hunter will share the story of Elgin’s evolving grocery scene—from early self-sufficient homesteads to bustling corner stores and the rise of co-ops like Shared Harvest.
We’d love to see you there and appreciate your support in helping Shared Harvest grow!
