Co-op Volunteer and Item Request and New Items List

Hey Folks,

It’s time for a new item list as well as we are looking for a few things for the Co-op so we figured we’d put them out to the universe;

  1. We are looking for someone to meet one of our deliveries at the Belfast Co-op Parking lot on Fridays between 9:30am-10am typically. Our regular volunteer is unable to do it after the end of the month so we thought we’d ask.
  2. We are also looking for a new vacuum cleaner and stereo (or cd player only) for the Co-op. Both of ours have gotten to the point where they are giving us trouble so if anyone has any used ones they are willing to offload we would greatly appreciate it.

If you are able to help with either of these items please reach out to volunteermarshriver@gmail.com!

Night Moves Update

Hey Everone,

We wanted to let you know that we’ve received a missive from Night Moves that they will no longer be delivering to our location for the foreseeable future until they can increase capacity. This is truly unfortunate but we understand the difficulties of running a small business so we wish them the best and we hope to see them again in the near future. In light of this change we’d love to hear from folks about any other bakeries you think we should reach out to, please let us know in the comments!

Update to the Marsh River Co-op Masking Requirement

To our valued membership and customers;

Effective 06/24/2021 the Marsh River Cooperative will no longer be requiring masks for our customers/members in the store (We are moving to Masks Recommended at this time). At the last board meeting the board and management established a set of gating metrics for relaxing our mask requirement (this included but was not limited to case rates and vaccination rates). As of 06/23/2021 all of the necessary criteria have been met for us to loosen our requirements.

We will continue to strongly recommend that our staff/volunteers continue to mask while they are on the sales floor. Our first and foremost priority is ensuring the safety & wellbeing of those individuals who have worked so hard to keep the Co-op going.

We will continue to offer curbside service to those individuals that don’t feel comfortable coming into the store.

We will continue to evaluate the information available on an ongoing basis and if the situation on the ground changes for the worse we reserve the right to reintroduce our masking requirement.

If you have any issues or concerns regarding this change please feel free to speak to the board or management. You are welcome to email marshrivercooperative@gmail.com if you would like to provide comments.

We appreciate everyone’s understanding over the last year and we are looking forward to a great summer!

Sincerely,

MRC Board and Management
