Cedar Falls High School CAPS (Center for Advanced Professional Studies) students Colby, Ella, and Natasia gave a 5 minute pitch about their project, the Rooted Carrot, at CAPS Demo Day! We are excited to be working with them to launch a new student membership for college students.
After selecting the Rooted Carrot for their client project, the students started researching the Rooted Carrot and the reasons current member-owners joined using both an in-person and electronic survey. While researching other co-ops, they found several that offered student memberships. They worked with the board to explore this option for the Rooted Carrot, and we are currently finalizing the details. Their next step will be reaching out to the colleges, educating and generating excitement among the students.
