Co-op Annual Meeting 
 
More than 50 member-owners attended the Co-op's Annual Meeting this past Sunday. Reports to the membership were delivered by Peter Feitner, board president, Michael Kalagher, general manager, Wil Hastings, treasurer, and Peg Cowen, vice president and chairwoman of the Co-op's Outreach Committee (pictured below speaking).
 
 
Peg reviewed an exciting slate of Outreach Committee projects and invited participation by members. The crowd was engaged and interactive, and many ideas were offered for further improving our Co-op. Would you like to be involved? Email [email protected].
 
In other business, member-owners elected Jonathan Rehmus and Kim Tobin to the Co-op's board of directors.
 
Are you a Co-op member-owner who was unable to attend but would like to receive a full set of the reports that were delivered? Send an email to [email protected] or see Michael when you're in the store.

What I love about the Creamery!

"I love that the Creamery is a place where people can meet, come together over delicious food, and always expect warm smiles. I love that I can run down the hill and find fresh produce, delicious old-fashioned doughnuts, and organic cooking herbs! LOVE you guys!"
