Discount Member-Worker Program

The Discount Member-Worker Program is designed to engage a handful of our member-owners to help out with the daily operations at their beloved food cooperative. Not only do they enjoy the community-minded environment, but they receive a 20%  DISCOUNT at the store (based on how many hours they work).

The Logistics

READ CAREFULLY! As a Member-Worker, you will be compensated with a 20% off discount on all the delicious food & cool products we have to offer at Mountain Avenue Market. The amount of discounts given is determined by how many hours of work you put into the cooperative. Each hour worked is equivalent to minimum wage.  The value of the hours you work will be stored in your “account” at the co-op and will be paid out to you as a 20% discount.   

Your discount will become effective at the beginning of each month for hours worked the previous month. You can continue to use this discount until you have used up your funds, meaning you can use them even if you no longer work here.  

You will be classified as an employee of the co-op and your compensation is subject to Social Security and Federal employment taxes. You will receive a W-2 at the end of the year for the amount of compensation earned. Please note, this may effect you if you are on unemployment.
