Growing the Co-op

Becoming an Owner

Right now is the most important time to become an owner because the longer you wait to join, the longer it will take to open the store. By becoming a co-op owner now, you will play an integral role in the process of bringing a full-service grocery store that offers food grown and produced by your neighbors to Silverton.
Buying a share is easy! It’s a one-time investment of $150. We also offer payment plans if that is a better fit for you. We want ownership to be accessible to anyone who wants to become an owner.  Once we passed the milestone of 500 owners, we no longer offer the founding ownership. We would like to thank all the founding owners for their support. Founding owners will receive in-store recognition.
