What Are My Requirements As An Owner/Member?


• Support our Co-op by shopping regularly (minimum $70 per month)
   That is less than $2.50 a day!!!

• Volunteer to work a minimum of two hours per month or pay our $10 per month non-working fee.
   (Work requirement is optional for seniors 65 and older, however if you can please do.)

• Tell others about us.

• Additionally, you should attend at least one monthly board meeting, our annual meeting, a wellness forum, or    even become a board member to help increase the success of the co-op.

   

How Much Does My Owner/Member Certificate Cost?



• A new one year owner/member card at the Co-op is $55.
   (seniors and full-time students $35)

• Renewal fees for owners/members are $42.
   (seniors and full-time students $24)

Anyone can join. Owner/Member capital goes directly into the store, meaning that all equipment in our store was purchased by our owners/members. This allows us to make improvements to our store (to serve you better!) without having to raise prices on goods.


Why Should I Join When I Don't Have To Pay To Shop At A Health Food Store?


Actually, you DO pay. Health food & specialty stores generally have a higher mark-up and larger overhead than co-ops.


How Do I Join?


Sign up and pay for your owner/member card then receive a brief and informative orientation, including a tour.
