Learn more about the co-op business model, NOFC’s mission & structure, the rights, responsibilities, and benefits you have as an Owner-Member, and how to get more involved.

We will specifically also cover ways for owners to get involved as “Hands On Owners.” As a Member-Owner, you have the opportunity to help the co-op by investing your own time and energy. Hands-On-Ownership (HOO) is a valuable way to learn about cooperative enterprise, healthy foods, and to work with others in your community. Those interested in becoming HOOs must participate in this orientation to be scheduled for duties or a shift.
