The Co-operative was originally run from a house on Braund Rd, Prospect. The house had a shop front which was opened as The Village Store. This evolved into Village Natural Technology Systems with a focus on solar, wind, sustainable house design, permaculture, books and workshops.
Village Natural Technology Systems moved to Prospect Road, Prospect in the early 1980s and the Co-operative owned store was opened by the Honorable John Bannon, Premier of South Australia, on November 26, 1983 [2]
The Village Community Co-operative was also active in the anti-nuclear movement collaborating with CANE and Friends of the Earth to produce Your carry anywhere anti - uranium songbook for Australia.[3]
