The Natural Food Co-op is governed by an elected Board of Directors. Seven NFC owners, elected by the ownership, are on the board at any given time.

The Board has three primary duties.

• To ensure sound management of the co-op

• To act as trustees on behalf of the ownership

• To set long-range goals and plan for the future

To fulfill these responsibilities, the Board of Directors focuses on four key areas:

• Hiring

• Financial oversight

• Long-range strategic planning

• Recruitment of replacement directors

Directors act in accordance with the Code of Ethics and Conduct.

The Board also oversees elections and recommends updates to the Articles and Bylaws, the legal documents that define and guide the co-op.

Directors must look after the best interests of the co-op as a whole in a changing business environment. That means that policies and practices at the co-op may change over time.

Board Members:

Arlene Groskreutz: President

Amy Levinkski: Vice President 

Donna Miller: Secretary

Nick Olson: Treasurer

Cindy Haugland

Sundee Keuchle

Darin Mahlow
