Clear Creek Food Cooperative

Co-op Update: June 13-20

1. Richmond Farmers Market started today!
2. Inventory coming up end of June!
3. Open Board Meeting - Summer Membership

1. Richmond Farmers Market started today!
The Richmond Farmer’s Market began today,
June 13th in the parking lot at North A St. and
6th Street, across from Morrison-Reeves Public
Library!!! Don’t miss all the great local products
and networking available there!

2. Inventory coming up end of June!
Even though our stock has scaled back considerably,
our Second Quarter Inventory is coming up at the
end of June, in two weeks!! Typically, this has been
done the Saturday closest to the last day of the
quarter, so in this case, June 27th. We suggest
conducting inventory after closing at 2 p.m. on this
day, and perhaps reserving Sunday afternoon as
well, if it doesn’t get done!! Many hands make light
work, so if aren’t able to volunteer on a regular
basis, but can on that weekend, this is your chance!!

3. Open Board Meeting - Summer Membership
At the board meeting this past Tuesday, a proposal
on altering the Membership agreement for the
course of the summer was passed by the
members present.

Here is the proposed membership agreement for
the co-op’s immediate future:

• Shoppers will NOT need to pay a fee to become members.

• Members are strongly encouraged to participate in the life of the co-op by ordering regularly, sharing the co-op’s mission with others,volunteering as their schedule permits, and attending member meetings.

• Placing bulk orders through the buying club requires membership.

• Non-working members will pay a 25% mark-up on bulk orders.

• Working members will pay a 10% mark-up on one bulk order in the month that they work (on the honor system, we’d like to say this applies for working 4+ hours per month).

• There will be no regular in-store discount. However, member sales will occur regularly during the summer.

If you have concerns or responses to this proposal/
decision, please email the board at

Signing off as managers with much love and hope!!
