Rattail's inception occurred at [[http://mamajeansmarket.com/|MaMa Jean's Natural Market]] in Springfield, MO, but was also greatly influenced by the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative|Co-op]] community surrounding the [[http://is4c.coop/|IS4C]] project. Also, [[http://sacfoodcoop.com/|Sacramento Natural Foods Co-op]] in Sacramento, CA, has contributed heavily to its development.
