We are proud to say that our Society has been actively operating in Southern Alberta since 1966 under the Alberta Co-operative Associations Act, which was repealed in 2002 and replaced by the Co-operatives Act. We are a not-for-profit, non-sectarian co-operative administered by a board of twelve volunteer directors.
