Membership
Join the Co-op Community!
When you become a Member of the Co‑op, not only does Membership pay for itself with savings year-round, but you also gain access to great benefits inside our store and in the community. Additionally, you join a business that is committed to bringing community ownership to our local food system, supporting local growers and producers, and increasing food access in the heart of Burlington, Vermont. Membership is open to everyone and offers a chance to be part of a business that will be locally owned forever!
Membership Benefits
City Market Members gain access to great benefits inside our store and in the community! These include Member Discount Days, reduced-price cooking classes, discounts at local businesses, and incentives for volunteering through our Member Work program. Plus, Members determine our Co-op’s future by voting in Board elections and even running for our Board of Directors.
