4th Annual Member Picnic 

The Board invites you to the Fourth Annual Member Picnic, which is coming up quickly! It will be held on Saturday, June 28, from 2-5 p.m. at the Racheff Gardens and Arboretum, 1943 Tennessee Avenue, Knoxville, TN  37921. This event will be family-friendly and have activities for all ages. You will have time to network with other like-minded co-op co-owners, you can tour the beautiful gardens, and there will be time for you to engage with Board members if you would like. Please register here if you plan to attend. We look forward to seeing you there.

Board of Directors Election

Election season is almost here! The Board is looking for dedicated member-owners interested in taking their TRM support to the next level. If you’re up for the challenge, reach out to the Board Perpetuation Committee via email at board@threeriversmarket.coop, or feel free to ask questions during the member forum at the next Board meeting. Candidate information and resources for the 2025 election will be posted to the Election page of the website on July 1.

Board Service: Learn More!  

The expectations of the Board of Directors are outlined in the “D” section of our Policy Manual. At our spring retreat in March, we began a process of reviewing and updating these policies; new policies were approved at our May meeting. We encourage those interested in Board service to view these policies to learn about the responsibilities of the Board.

And if you’d like to chat with a Board member about what service entails, look out for Director Brian D. Williams next time you’re at the store!

Board Interactions

Creating more interactions between the Board and owners is always important. So is spending time in the store and gaining a better understanding of the daily flow and challenges our store faces. With these goals in mind, Brian D. Williams has been helping to bag groceries for the past several Mondays and will continue to do so. Please stop by on Mondays during your lunch time and chat with Brian. He will be in the green apron and is looking forward to helping. Huge THANKS to Fadi and the staff for not only allowing this but being so amazing and helpful. Also, Holleroo was amazing and Cluckin’ & Truckin’ made us proud. If you missed it this year, make sure you catch the race next lap around.
