Officers were elected at the November 28th meeting. They are:

Chair: Mary Overlie
Assistant Chair: Debbie Warne-Jacobsen
Treasurer: Doug Scott
Secretary: Judy Boorman

Officers are elected each year at the first Board of Directors meeting following the General Membership Meeting and serve one year terms.

On October 28th the membership gathered at the United Methodist Church meeting room. Harmony’s staff prepared a fantastic tex mex dinner for our owners and it was a wonderful chance to see familiar faces and a few new faces as well. Board treasurer Mary Overlie led a great discussion on ways Harmony could strengthen the community’s connection to local and organic foods prior to the start of the official meeting. The question is also posted to Harmony’s Facebook page so if you have some ideas head over to FB and post on our wall.

During the official meeting board, general manager, and treasurer’s reports were given, as well as a demonstration of our new web site. Owners were encouraged to sign up for Harmony’s newsletter (which you can do at the bottom of this web page). Director’s election results were tabulated and announced. Elected to three year terms were Judy Boorman, Bridget Stomberg and Ryan Zemek. Judy and Bridget were appointed to fulfill vacancies on the board earlier this year and Ryan is a new member. Congratulations to our newly elected directors!!

Thanks to everyone who came out to do the important work necessary for our organization. Hope to see you all next year!!

Harmony’s Frozen Department received quite a boost from the expansion. The new freezer units are beautiful, huge and easy to use. It was even easier to fill them up with all of our already popular staples and the great suggestions from our very involved shoppers!

We are so happy to be able to offer more Minnesota grown pork, beef, chicken and turkey products. Our wild caught fish selection now includes Mahi Mahi, several varieties of salmon, Alaskan Cod, Halibut and Red Lake Walleye.

We have also brought on more products from nationally trusted brands such as Applegate Farms, Beeler’s, Shelton’s, Kashi, Quorn, Amy’s, Rising Moon, and Alexia. The gluten-free baked goods section has received a big boost from the additional space and continues to expand. Its great to be able to offer twice the variety of frozen fruits & vegetables, bagels, waffles, and ice cream treats.

We hope you enjoy the increased accessibility and convenience of the new and improved Frozen Department, and keep the requests coming!
