It takes a village to open a co-op. Hudson Grocery Co-op has been powered by volunteers for the last 10+ years. As we inch closer to opening a store in 2024 volunteers are still needed, specially related to our fundraising efforts. Learn more and sign-up to help make our co-op a reality and join a dynamic group of fun volunteers.
We are seeking writers for blogs, newsletters, and promotional materials. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact us!
Consider hosting a house party to convince your neighbors, family, and friends to join! We will provide promotional materials and applications, and we will also talk to your group to explain the benefits of having a locally owned grocery store in Hudson. Groups of 10 are optimal, and our board members would be happy to meet with you, answer questions, and help you. Just Contact Us to get started! A board member will contact you with all the information that you’ll need.
Have you considered serving as a volunteer for HGC? The more active volunteers we have the quicker HGC can open its doors.
There are a wide variety of volunteer opportunities, with something to fit most any skill sets.
