Board service at the Co-op is designed to be accessible while still being meaningful. Board Directors commit to meeting in person once every two months for about an hour and a half. They are also required to join at least one committee, with the option to participate in additional committees depending on interest and availability, with occasional preparation needed. Committees meet on an as-needed basis, but you can expect one meeting per committee between regular board meetings. Attendance is expected at the Co-op’s Annual Meeting on May 16, 2026, and at the annual board retreat in October. 

New Board Directors receive orientation and training as part of onboarding, which is completed before their first board meeting. The initial term is two years. In appreciation of their commitment to the Co-op and time spent, Board Directors receive a generous store discount for their household.
