Over the next five years, we need to consistently increase sales and memberships, so we can pay for essential structural work, renovate for accessibility, improve our building’s level of care and maintenance, and replace aging IT, office and mechanical equipment. In the 2020-21 budget, we aimed to increase revenues by 10% and were successful, but our expenses, especially staffing costs during COVID, outstripped these gains in large part due to the loss of member labour.

Please spend more of your grocery dollars with us! Shopping at our food co-op cycles significantly more grocery dollars back into the local economy, and thereby, strengthens local, sustainable food systems, the environment, our health, and the financial health of our communities. Spend more of your grocery dollars at Karma and help secure a bright food future for us all.
