Newbridge Food Co-op or Newbridge OOOOBY is the 2nd OOOOBY group in Ireland, the first one starting in Wicklow in association with Carraig Dulra.
Standing for ‘Out of Our Own Back Yard’ the OOOOBY group is based on the Food Co-op ideals of sourcing local producers and suppliers of local, tasty, affordable and if possible, organic food.
NOOOOBY also encourages members to bring their own produce, and most of our goods are now coming from members of the co-op. NOOOOBY is a not for profit, voluntary group, run by a group of interested locals, who feel strongly about where their food comes from.

Shop' night will take place next Wednesday 14th November 2012, at 8pm in The Lifeflow Centre, 4 Moorefield Rd, Newbridge. Those who placed orders should come down to pick up their goods and there will be a shop with dry goods for sale also.
Newbridge OOOOBY, standing for ‘Out of Our Own Back Yard’ the OOOOBY group is based on the Food Co-op ideals of sourcing local producers and suppliers of local, tasty, affordable and if possible, organic food.
We meet on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month, in The Lifeflow Centre, on Moorefield Road, Newbridge at 8pm. The 4th Wednesday is for placing your order and the 2nd Wednesday is for collection of goods. We also tend to have a ‘shop’ there on the night with goods for sale that aren’t on the order form.
If you’re interested in getting involved in the group, and buying your food locally, you can contact us via email at newbridgeooooby@gmail.com or phone our chairman Mairtín Lane on 087/4169582
Other tit bits:
*Please remember that to ensure the continuation of the food co-op we need people to pay for goods in advance. Please fill in the goods you want, save the file with your name in the title and email it back to us here at this email address, or call down in person with your order on 4th Wednesday of the month. Online orders are also acceptable, you can set up a standing order to our credit union account.
*We always have a stash of extra bits to sell on the 'pick up' night, so it's worthwhile bringing some extra change in your pocket when you come down to pick up your order!
*Can people bring bags with them to the ordering night - plastic/paper/reusable/fabric etc. and then we'll have a stash for making up the orders on the collection night
