On behalf of the Three Rivers Market Board of Directors and co-owners, I want to express sincere gratitude to our General Manager and all of our Co-op employees.

We see you all working so diligently to ensure that we have a clean, well-stocked place to gather food and needed supplies. We see your thoughtfulness and innovation. And we see your bravery. Thank you all.

The Board will have a video conference April Board Meeting due to Covid-19 precautions. It will be recorded and posted with the minutes. As always, questions or concerns may be sent to the board by emailing board@threeriversmarket.coop
