Their operating philosophies ranged from small-scale capitalism to socialist and communist principles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In December 1875, English and Scottish textile workers organized <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the Riverside<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Co-operative Association, which bought groc<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ery <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">products in Boston and sold them at wholesale prices in Maynard. The Riverside Co-op was organized on the Rochedale model developed by workers in England in 1844. Anyone could join the coop for a small membership fee, its profits were distributed through an annual dividend, and the co-op was democratically controlled (one member, one vote). <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By 1903 the Riverside Co-op was the largest grocery business in Maynard, with around 400 members. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it disban<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ded in 1936, the co-op once housed a grocery store, meeting room, and banquet hall on the first two floors of the building that still occupies the corner of Nason and Summer Streets.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8526\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8526\" style=\"width: 526px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/index.php\/cooperatives-in-maynard\/kaleveshare1915\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8526\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8526\" src=\"http:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KaleveShare1915.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"526\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KaleveShare1915.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KaleveShare1915-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KaleveShare1915-768x592.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalboston.bc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KaleveShare1915-1024x789.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 526px) 100vw, 526px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8526\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Share Certificate for the <\/em><em>Kaleva Co-operative Association, 1915.

Local members of the Finnish Workingmen\u2019s Socialist Society began the Kaleva Co-operative Associ<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ation in 1907, after the Riverside Co-op declined their request to hire Finnish-speaking store clerks. The Kaleva Co-op later joined forces with other Finnish cooperative societies in Massachusetts and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chan<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ged its name to the United Co-operative Society of Maynard in 1921.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The United soon became the largest co-op in Maynard and one of the top ten in the country. It was also the longest running, operating from 1907 to 1973. At its peak, it had more than fifty full-time employees. The society offered a restaurant, service station, and appliance store, as well as being a distributor of coal, wood, grain, fertilizer, baked goods, and milk. Besides the store, the co-op featured educational programs, dances, theatrical events, and summer camps for children. In 1947 more than half of Maynard residents w<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ere members of the Unit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and during its first fifty years, the co-op grew from 184 members to nearly 3000.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Moreover, the society did roughly a third of its business with non-Finns who didn\u2019t belong to the co-op.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of Maynard\u2019s other cooperative societies tended to serve specific immigrant groups who were also members. For example, the town\u2019s<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Polish, Lithuanian, and Russian populations began the International Co-operative in 1911. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of these organizations later struggled financially and some <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">were forced to close after extending credit during the Great Depression.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Nevertheless, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maynard\u2019s cooperative tradition has continued into the 21<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> century, with current residents now working to create the Assabet Village Co-op.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">&#8211;Amanda Judah<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1594063072039{margin-top: -30px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 10px !important;padding-top: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;] Employees of the Kaleva Cooperative Association in front of their Main Street shop, ca 1915.
