NCBA is excited to join food co-op leaders and advocates as they gather in Tacoma, Washington next week for CCMA 2026.
Presented by the University of Wisconsin Center for Cooperatives in partnership with local host Central Co-op and Washington’s co-op community, CCMA 2026 invites cooperators to come together to explore how collaboration creates lasting, cascading impact.
Look for NCBA’s joint table with the Cooperative Development Foundation in the exhibitor area. Stop by and say hi to Virginia Brown, our Director of Cooperative Engagement and Member Outreach and a proud member of Fredericksburg Food Co-op. You could win a free ticket to NCBA’s Cooperative IMPACT Conference in October or a significant discount on membership!
For folks not attending CCMA 2026, Virginia will be sharing conference updates on LinkedIn.
CCMA is the longest-standing national gathering of retail food co-op leaders in the U.S., welcoming managers, staff, board members and allies to foster connections across all levels. CCMA attendees learn, connect, collaborate and come away reinvigorated to do the hard but important work of building a more just and sustainable food system through cooperatives.
