Our development timeline depends on the support of our community and people like you. To help us reach financial viability, CCFC must sell 1,200 Owner shares before we open our doors. Hitting this key milestone demonstrates the strong community commitment that lenders and grantors look for and helps ensure store loyalty from day one. By becoming an Owner – and encouraging your family, friends, and neighbors to join – you help strengthen our local food system, keep food dollars circulating locally, and build a more resilient community.

Congratulations and Welcome!

Thank you for becoming a founding Owner of Cultivate Community Food Co-op!

Benefits of Ownership:

• Ownership in a local business committed to food access, a stronger economy, and community building

• Opportunities to connect with fellow owners and build meaningful relationships

• Access to owner-only events and online specials during co-op development

• Future owner deals, bulk-buy discounts, and yearly patronage dividends once the store opens

We’ve learned from other food co-ops that the best way to increase ownership is through word of mouth. Please be sure to let your loved ones know about us!
