Gathering with family and friends for a Thanksgiving meal is a familiar ritual for many people. In recognition that the story of the first Thanksgiving perpetuates an inaccurate and harmful version of history, our co-op is joining food co-ops across the country to make a collective donation to North American Traditional Indigenous Food Systems (NĀTIFS) this November.

Three new members joined the MFC Board of Directors in 2024.

Women played indispensable roles in the cooperative movement, driving change and fostering resilience within their communities.

When it comes to celebrating Mardi Gras, food and drink play a central role in the festivities.

For the past year, the Medford Food Co-op Board of Directors has been considering the feasibility of an expansion opportunity on site at our current location.

Alexis Gossage joined MFC as an owner in 2017 and was elected as a board member at the Annual Meeting in May 2023.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Rebekah "Sarah" Calhoun, the Vice President and Secretary of the Medford Food Co-op Board of Directors.

On March 23rd, MFC submitted preliminary plans to the City’s Planning Department to determine the possibility of expansion at our current location. The Board is still assessing feasibility and feedback from the Planning Department is essential before involving owners, employees, and the community in a wider discussion. Submitting plans to the city is a preliminary step in determining if expansion is financially feasible.

Medford Food Co-op’s Board of Directors, comprised of up to nine community members, plays a vital role in the success and sustainability of our cooperative. They provide guidance, strategic planning, and oversight for the Co-op.

The Board of Directors determines whether or not the Co-op pays a dividend each year based on profitability and the need to retain capital to ensure the Co-op’s future success. Based on profitable sales in 2021, the Board of Directors is distributing a portion of those profits as a patronage dividend.

October is Co-op Month! Celebrated by cooperatives nationwide during the month of October, National Co-op Month is an annual opportunity to raise awareness of a trusted, proven way to do business and build resilient, inclusive communities.

It seems like we’ve been talking about expansion for a very long time, and from a distance it may seem like not much is happening. Actually, the Board has been working diligently to move this process along.

The Medford Food Co-op annual owner meeting was held at the Co-op on May 1, 2022.

The Board of Directors is anticipating the upcoming year and setting goals for our cooperative's success.

Since we started the Positive Change program in January of 2019, we’ve donated a total of $89,568.24 to two dozen local nonprofit organizations and three local fire relief funds.
