We’re looking forward to a fun evening of celebrating Whole Foods Co-op with our Owners in one of Duluth’s most popular locations – the Great Lakes Aquarium!

The first 80 Owners to register will recieve a free “I Own a Grocery Store with my Neighbors” travel mug!

People are welcome to arrive starting at 5:30 to join us under a big tent to enjoy Oasis del Norte and Mama Roots for dinner, and we look forward to welcoming Ross Thorn to play for the first hour of the event.

Everyone will recieve a free drink ticket. Owners will also recieve one of each per Owner account: a free meal ticket, giveaway entry and $5 coupon for the Co-op.

The Aquarium will open at 6pm and everyone will be welcome in to explore. The Sturgeon and Moon Jelly Touchpools will be open and Love Creamery will be scooping desserts.

Back by popular request, we’ll be welcoming many of our local vendors to table throughout the Aquarium so you can meet the local folks behind your food.

There will also be games, prizes, an opportunity to vote in our election and, of course, we’ll host the Business Meeting, which will be in the St. Louis River room on the second floor, overlooking the Lift Bridge, at 7pm.

Parking will be free. Details are on the Annual Owner Meeting Announcement postcard mailed in early September to each Owner’s primary address. They will also be provided in a confirmation email shortly before the event, as well as by staff at the event.

People only interested in attending the Buisness Meeting are welcome to attend for free but are requeste to register. By registering in advance, they will recieve a free drink ticket and a $5 Co-op coupon.

Tickets will open in September. Watch your mailbox and email for more information.
