Calling all Cooperators! The future of Open Harvest requires committed, purposeful leaders and we are looking for the next set of owners who have an interest in joining the Open Harvest Board of Directors. Open Harvest Co-op Grocery is owned and democratically governed by our owners, and each year they vote to elect representatives to serve a three-year term for the co-op. Applications for candidacy are due by September 15th, 2024. Below you’ll find more information about the board and the election process. If you have any questions or want to talk with someone about serving, don’t hesitate to contact us at board@openharvest.coop. We’ll be happy to set up a phone call or meeting to talk more. Our handy Candidate Application Packet contains more detailed information about board service and the candidate application. When you’re ready to apply, click below to download the packet and application, or stop by the customer service desk at the store to pick up a hard copy.
The slate of candidates will be approved at the October 1st board meeting. The election cycle will follow and conclude at the 2024 Annual Owner Meeting in November.
