We had our Annual Owners Meeting Saturday. It was a glorious occasion - sparsely attended but chock full of information, updates, and news about our Co-Op. A big thank you to all who participated!
The proposed amendment to the Bylaws was approved with no “nay” votes. The full text can be found at https://www.deeprootsmarket.com/annual-owners-meeting. Regarding the election of Directors, the following three candidates were elected: Linda Sullivan, Ashleigh Odom, and Drew Dix. Congratulations! All 3 were already Board members, so there is no change in the Board's composition at this time. The Board typically meets monthly on the fourth Tuesday, currently via Zoom. All Owners are welcome to attend as observers; the meeting dates/times and contact info are in the weekly e-newsletter.
It's amazing how resilient Deep Roots has been over the years, as we now making our way out of yet another financial crisis. It's part of the Co-Op advantage, being owned by the local community and committed to serving it. We have Staff, Management, and Directors committed to our mission, willing to go the extra mile for the Co-Op. And most of all we have a dedicated base of Owners and customers, who show their support through their patronage and participation. We are continually looking for ways to better serve our community and enjoy being on this cooperative journey with you!
Stronger Together!

President, Board of Directors
