A farmer shops at the Irwinville Farms cooperative store (Irwin County) in 1938. Promoted by such national organizations as the National Grange and the Farmer's Union, cooperatives formed among farmers to acquire equipment, seed, and other supplies, as well as to organize the processing and marketing of their crops.
