Greetings Cooperators,
In April, we held our annual board retreat at co-op board member, Carla Dittmann’s, property – a setting that felt both familiar and full of discovery. In many ways, it mirrored the environment co-ops are currently navigating: known, yet uncertain.
Throughout our time together that day, a clear theme emerged: we share more common ground than differences. That shared understanding became the foundation of the retreat’s spirit, fostering a sense of trust and connection that will help guide us through whatever lies ahead.
As we look to the year ahead, we carry this belief with us: we are stronger together, and that shared strength empowers us to advance our mission with clarity and resolve.
In gratitude,
Rollin Metzger
