The Co-op Board consists of seven members elected by the general Co-op membership. Board terms are three years. Responsibilities and expectations for those serving on the Rooted Carrot’s Board of Directors are outlined in the Candidate Application Packet.
We have a great group of dedicated board members who enjoy working together and bring a variety of expertise to the board. Currently, we meet once a month on the third Wednesday, either online or in-person at the Community Main Street Office.
The Board is tasked with making decisions for the Co-op and accomplishing goals that get us closer to opening a full service grocery store. The Co-op cannot exist without the Board.
Not sure if you would be a good fit, take this quiz below! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us via info@rootedcarrot.coop. Current board members are happy to answer questions!
Do you have a vision and a passion for building and advancing a cooperatively-owned local business?
Do you want to be part of the team that helps to bring a unique grocery store stocked with locally-produced products to Cedar Falls?
Do you want to help make decisions regarding the store site, store design, and hiring of the general manager?
If you answered yes to these questions, we think you’d be an excellent Board Member!
