The Concept of Cass Clay Wholesome Food Co-op

We envision a full-line retail grocery store in the Fargo/Moorhead area. It will be member-owned and democratically governed in accordance with the International Co-operative Alliance principles. It will serve both members and non-members from our local community and the surrounding area. The co-op will be well-managed and financially sound to provide for its longevity and meet its fiduciary obligations. Our operations will support our commitment to the long-term health and well-being of our employees, customers, producers, and the environment. The goods we offer will reflect our dedication to providing natural, sustainable, and preferably local selections as affordably as possible. Through education and outreach, we will strive to empower ourselves and our community with knowledge about the impact of what we consume on health, society, the economy, and the ecosystem. We will treat our employees, member-owners, and customers with respect and care, valuing the people who bring our food from field to table. The co-op facilities will be clean, modern, and accessible. Our actions and our customer service will reflect our values and our commitment to being a center for our community.
