You’re invited to join Whole Foods Co-op for our 2025 Celebration and Annual Owner Meeting!
Owners, shoppers, and community members are welcome to join us as we celebrate 55 years of local food and community connections. There will be music, activities, food, drinks, and—of course—cake!
Reserve Your Ticket by Wed., Oct. 1 for a free drink!
Tickets to the event are $5/ person (kids under 5 are free). Every person who reserves a ticket will receive a free Ursa Minor drink ticket (covers alcoholic, THC, and N/A beverages). Kids 5 and under will receive a juice box.
Owners will also receive a free Ursa Minor food ticket (one per Co-op Owner account).
If you don’t wish to purchase a ticket, you may attend the event and/or business meeting at no cost and without a ticket. Food and drinks will be available for purcahse.
Stress-Free Parking! Take the Shuttle!
A school bus with a wheelchair lift will run consistently from Wade Stadium (35th Ave. W., Duluth) to Ursa Minor and back from 3:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
You can access the Wade Stadium parking lot off 34th Ave. W. from either Grand Ave. or W. Superior St.

Meet Old Friends – And New!
Order something to eat, grab something to drink, and catch up with old friends. Also, walk around and explore! They’ll be fun activities (with prizes!) set up throughout the evening for all ages to connect with one another and the Co-op.
Business Meeting
The Annual Whole Foods Co-op Business Meeting will be at 5 p.m., followed by a Listening Session for the co-op's Good and Welfare.
Vote
A voting station for our Annual Election will be set up for the entirety of the event, and we’ll have someone available to answer questions on voting (and help look up Owner numbers!).
