The Orcas Food Co-op is a local business, providing healthy, local, organic
|
|
|
|
|
food to the community of Orcas Island, and several surrounding islands. As a
|
|
|
|
|
co-op, our goals are set by the membership, and we strive to be an exemplar
|
|
|
|
|
business with livable wages, equitable and affordable access, zero-waste, and
|
|
|
|
|
local products. As we finish off 2020 the co-op is growing faster than ever,
|
|
|
|
|
with several expansion projects underway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a member of the board, the community has elected me to help the co-op
|
|
|
|
|
realize those goals they set. I work closely with the general manager to
|
|
|
|
|
review the financial health of the business, and participate in monthly
|
|
|
|
|
meetings with the management staff to strategize how the co-op can continue
|
|
|
|
|
to better serve our island communities.
