The story of our head office
The head office began as a small workspace where the founding members kept records, saved together and made their first decisions. As more members and programs joined, the cooperative needed a place that could hold them all.
Today the head office brings management, training and member services under one roof. It is where the board meets, where members register and learn, and where every program, from farms to schools, is coordinated.
