Although I'm not a  member, I am a customer of Abundance.  I'm appalled that they would consider engaging in a business venture with Lijha Wilton.  This man has a history that includes  taking financial advantage of 19th Ward community members with regard to Boulder Coffee on Genesee Street, as will as alleged labor violations concerning his dealings with the people who operated La Casa Restaurant in the South Wedge.
