Board positions will range from one to three years, with terms being established at our first AGM in 2014, but we are looking for candidates with a minimum two year availability for the board. If you are interested please send an email by 5pm on July 26, 2013 to hr@mustardseed.coop with your resume and a brief introduction explaining why you would like to be a member of your co-op’s Board of Directors.
