an organic, free-range network of friends who spread friendliness in Northeast LA + beyond! The coop began by accident when Cat Moore, a Mother Clucker (catalyst) in the Coop, began getting to know people in her neighborhood Starbucks while pregnant with her son. After 25 years of loneliness, Cat found herself fostering connections among thousands of diverse locals, relationships that spilled out of the cafe and took on a life of their own.
