We're looking for a few good Member-owners!
We will have TWO vacant seats this year to fill--thank you to Colin Pizarek and Tammy Tintjer for their two years of service! Terre Foods will be hosting Board Elections through the month of October. This is a great time to run for the Board, and have a strong voice in the direction the co-op is taking. As you might imagine, a lot of important decisions will be made over the next year as we complete our Membership and Member Loan drives and begin work on our store. Now's the best time to make sure you get the co-op that YOU want, by joining the Board!
No expertise is required--just a love of good food, strong community, friendship, and a desire to make our city the best place to live in the Midwest! Contact Robyn Morton at robyn@terrefoods.org for more information.

2nd Annual Blueberry Festival a Success!
Were you worried about how the Blueberry Festival went, given the terrible weather we had? So were we, but the tallies are in, the books are settled, and it was a clear success! The Blueberry Festival cleared all expenses and netted just under $1,000 in profit, which will be split 2/3 to Terre Foods and 1/3 to Downtown Terre Haute. While the weather did prevent the festival from doubling in size this year as we had hoped, the festival grossed more revenue this year than last even despite the weather. And the media coverage we had was phenomenal! It was a definite win for us, and we look forward to doing it again next year!
