FOOD CO-OP BASICS: How To Join & Order


You can make a positive social impact with your grocery dollars and volunteer time by becoming a member today! Anyone can join, regardless of income. If you eat, you qualify. The more people who participate, the greater the savings become, because it allows the co-op to buy larger and larger quantities at discounted rates.

Order deadlines and pickup dates are as follows:

Distribution Order deadline Pickup date
July July 11th July 26th
August August 8th August 23rd
September September 12th September 27th
October October 10th October 25th
November November 7th November 22nd
December December 5th December 20th

To join a growing community of people interested in eating healthily, saving money and helping others, you just need to:

1.

Complete an order form
2. Log your volunteer hours when you pick up your food

Don't forget: Our share prices include two hours of your volunteer time, either with the Co-op, or in the community. Anything you do free of charge for someone other than your family counts! This can range from counting out apples on distribution day, to delivering a home-bound neighbor's food order, or even volunteering with a church, school, or nonprofit/civic organization. (CLICK HERE FOR VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES) Any volunteer work you already participate in will count, but we strongly suggest that everyone participate in the Co-op at least once to get a taste of the cooperative spirit. Your volunteer hours can also be banked for future months.
