Cultivate.oop is a library of information about cooperatives. Everything
here is created by and for people who work in co-ops. You can edit and
upload content to Cultivate.coop just like Wikipedia.

Cultivate.coop is also home to the Cooperative Education Network, a group
of practitioners developing a centralized collection of materials on co-op
education.
