Rising Tide Co-op 2025 Annual Election

Member-owners, please take time to participate in this year’s annual elections. Our cooperative grocery store operates for the benefit of our member-owners and is grounded in 7 common principles, which are collectively agreed upon by a global cooperative community. In voting, you are showing your commitment to Cooperative Principle 2: Democratic Member Control. 

This year our annual ballot contains two questions: The first is the election of Board Candidates. We have five open seats and five candidates. Please vote for five candidates. The second question is to elect Co-op for Community Day partners. Please vote for eleven nominees.

You must be an active owner of Rising Tide to vote. If you are not sure about your ownership status or have any other questions, please contact outreach@risingtide.coop.

Elections are open from October 10 through November 10.
