What are the benefits of membership?

Current Member Benefits include:

• Participation as a member-owner in the development of the co-op.
• Access to member specials and events
• A vote in Board elections and any other co-op votes/elections
• Eligibility to run as a candidate and serve on the Board of Directors
• The opportunity to invest in member loan program
• Savings on hundreds of Member-Owner specials and discounts on quantity purchases
• When the co-op is profitable, Member-Owners are eligible for patronage rebates on purchases
• The biggest benefit of all is access to a great co-op food cooperative in Southeastern Connecticut!
• Opportunities to earn additional discounts through volunteer efforts.

We are a start-up business requiring the use of member equity for opening expenses. Please note that while member-equity is potentially refundable in the future, member equity refunds cannot be made available until the cooperative is operating at a stable level of profitability.
