Going back even earlier than the formation of Rockingham Cooperative on October 29, 1921, The House Cooperation Built provides a wide overview of the history of Rockingham Cooperative and the agricultural industry in the Shenandoah Valley over the past 100+ years. Rockingham Cooperative’s history also includes the histories of its acquired cooperatives and individual businesses, including: Dayton Feeds, Shenandoah Cooperative, Highland Cooperative, Rockingham Milling Company, Draft Feed & Supply, Stuarts Draft Ace Hardware & Mariine, Roanoke Cooperative, Strasburg Farm & Home, and Verona Ace Hardware. Rockingham Cooperative, as well as the above-mentioned acquisitions and their respective histories, has grown into Rockingham Cooperative and its family of 14 locations that have proudly served agriculture for over 100 years. Rockingham Cooperative is the House that Cooperation built.
