Board of Directors
Harmony Co-op's Board of Directors is made up of nine co-op owners who are elected by the general ownership. Any co-op owner can run for a board position. Elections are in April, during our anniversary month. Guided by the Harmony Co-op Board Policies and Harmony's End Statements, the board works closely with our General Manager, who reports on the operation of the store.
The Board of Directors is responsible to assure the representation of Harmony Co-op interests in any and all organizations with which there is membership or other relationship. They take pride in representing our community of investors through strategic policy and planning. View the Board of Directors Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.
Join the Board
Any Harmony Co-op Owner can run for a seat on the Harmony Co-op Board of Directors through self-nomination. You can contact the board by emailing boardofdirectors@harmonyfoods.coop.

We started a new practice on the Harmony Board of getting up close and personal with our Ends Statements, what other organizations know as their mission & vision. Each board member arrives at the monthly meeting having reflected in some way on their understood purpose and meaning of that particular ‘why’ of Harmony’s work. The focus in January was Ends Statement #2: Harmony Coop strives to promote and restore healthful, sustainable and environmental practices.
One board member found a way to summarize what we have in a haiku.
"Regenerative farmers feed soil, plants, livestock and nourish us all."
If this kind of purpose-focused, community-leadership appeals to you, contact the board to find out more about joining us: boardofdirectors@harmonyfoods.coop
