Welcome new board members Tom Blanford & Dave Schachterle! And welcome back to Jodie Huegegrich who is returning for a second term on the board.
When you give a Co-op Membership, you invest in something that will have a long-term positive impact on our community. AND each time the recipient visits one of our Community Partners, they will be reminded of your generous gift! It truly is a gift that keeps on giving!
Everyone knows the saying “Many hands make light work!” Currently we have a small handful of Rooted Carrot volunteers doing a lot of work to keep the effort of bringing the Rooted Carrot Co-op Market to our community. Please continue to read this article to see how you can get involved. You don’t have to be a member to volunteer. You don’t have to spend hours each month. You can choose to be on a committee and/or volunteer for weekly or monthly tasks that are needed to make the Co-op successful.
Board Applications are due October 9th at midnight!
Join your Co-op friends on September 12th from 6-8 p.m. for a 90-minute kayak trip on the Cedar River – starting at the Canfield Access in George Wyth Park; ending at the Exchange Park Boat House in Waterloo. Expertly guided by Crawdaddy Outdoors, who also provides equipment rental for $20*. If you are renting, we’ll meet at 6 p.m. at the pullout location (Boat House) to shuttle you to the launch location. *Those bringing their own kayaks are responsible for shuttling them as needed – please be at the launch before 6:30 p.m.

As your Co-op continues doing the important work of opening a full-service community-owned grocery business, the contribution of volunteers on each committee is crucial. One such committee that has been a steady and often-under-the-radar force is the Rooted Carrot’s finance team.
