Cooperatives are democratic organizations controlled by their members. Trustees are elected among the membership and are accountable to those they serve by actively participating in setting policies and making decisions. This year the membership will be voting for candidates in all three districts, including a contested election for the 'open' District 3 seat.
Ballots will be mailed out in early April and are due May 1, 2026.
