Working Member Program for All Members

 

As a member of the Good Earth Co-op you are eligible for our Working Member Program.

This is a fun opportunity to get more involved with the Co-op and meet other Co-op members.

While participating in the working member program you will be entitled to a blanket discount on all your purchases at the Co-op. The co-op uses a sliding scale to determine your monthly discount.

1.5 hours of time = 1% discount not to exceed 15%.

Hours worked each month will be applied to the following month discount.

This discount can be used each time you shop!! What a deal!

Only members in good standing will be allowed to participate. (No outstanding payments)

 

Some areas you can participate in are:

Membership Committee: This committee is guided by a board member as chairperson. Plan fun and creative ways to broaden our membership, listen to our members, and reach out to the community

Field Work: Each year the Co-op participates in community events such as, Granite City Days, Sauk Rapids Farmers market. These events give us the opportunity to reach out to the greater community.

Events: In- store events such as: Summer Friday Cook-outs, Earth day.

Fundraising: Occasionally the Board of Directors will conduct a fundraising event for the Co-op. We may need a new freezer or want to raise money to start an outreach program for children.

Friday and Saturday Food Demos: If you love food and people this is for you! Fun interaction with people! And yummy food!

Hope you can join us in making the Good earth Co-op the best it can be!
