What is a Working Member? 

Love supporting a business that’s mission is focused on honest food, local producers, and community sustainability? Want to be a vital part of your Co-op? Do you have 6 hours per month to share your talents? If you answered yes to these questions, become a Working Member! Working Members are Co-op members who dedicate 6 hours each month to lending a hand at our Co-op.

2 hours per week, 3 weeks a month is the agreement between the Co-op and our Working Members, and we are always inclined to be flexible with schedules upon request. Completing 6 hours per month is what keeps your Working Member membership active. In addition to a Co-op membership, Working Members receive a 25% discount on all purchases.

Working Members are an important part of the Co-op culture. They are involved in the day-to-day operations of our business, working with staff to complete tasks like produce and bulk processing, cleaning, stocking, maintenance, meeting minute-taking, and other assignments. Like all Co-op members, Working Members receive the Co-op newsletter, are eligible to join management circles, vote in the annual Board election, and more!
