Co-op members are called owners, since each person owns a share in the Co-op. Ultimately, you will have an investment of $200 in this cooperative. You will be able to participate in meetings and speak out on policy and issues affecting the cooperative. Beyond the group of people buying together at the store, owners are also linked to one another in other ways and the potential of a cooperative is large, especially in the face of challenging times. Our connection to one another is incredibly important.
Here you can give us direct and immediate feedback, Figure out how to contact board and staff and how to participate in events and meetings. If you're just getting interested in the Co-op you, can download a pdf application or to fill out an application to become an owner (member), or discover other ways to connect and communicate with others in the Cooperative.
