The CO-OP a great community gathering place. It’s a great place for me to get all of the local supplies that I want, and I see friends and neighbors. It is a little family.

As a Member, you are also a Co-Owner

To create equity and investment in the CO-OP, each owner purchases a one-time "share." As our owner numbers increase, we will begin a capital loan campaign to raise funds making market expansion more financially feasible. The CO-OP looks forward to making a profit, which will go back into the store's operation, owner dividends, and an eventual non-profit segment.

We are currently offering Founding Memberships for $200.

 

Different Ways to Pay for your membership

  • Pay in Full: One-time payment of $200. Founding Member-Owner status and full voting privileges.

  • Quarterly Installments: Four installments of $50 made within 12 months. After the first payment, Founding Member-Owner status and full voting privileges are granted.

  • Worker Equity: In an effort to make the CO-OP accessible to all, we offer a work equity option, consisting of a one-time payment of $25 and 15 volunteer hours completed within the first year of membership. After the one-time payment, Founding Member-Owner status and full voting privileges are granted.

  • Shop Your Way to a Membership: Know someone who is interested in the CO-OP but hesitant to become a member? We are piloting a new membership option: non-members can opt to pay $5 every time they shop. This fee will go toward a membership.
