DescriptionThe federal government created Jersey Homesteads as part of a New Deal initiative. It was unique because it was the only community planned as an agro-industrial cooperative that included a farm, factory, and retail stores, specifically established for urban Jewish garment workers. This document contains a list of cooperative organizations that were interested in distributing clothing manufactured by the Co-op Clothing program. At the time the letter was written, there were 20,000 members and 23 cooperative organizations that had already distributed items during the past season.
