Join Our Board

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 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!

The Co-op Board consists of nine Members elected by the General Membership. Board terms are three years. Responsibilities and expectations for those serving on the Rooted Carrot’s Board of Directors are outlined in the 2024 Candidate Application Packet.

The Board Candidate Filing Period Begins on 08.28.2024 and Closes on 09.17.2024 at midnight.

We have a great group of dedicated board members who enjoy working together and bringing a variety of expertise to the board. Currently, we meet once a month on the third Wednesday, either online or in person. 

We look forward to meeting you!

If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at info@rootedcarrot.coop, and we will be happy to assist you.
