Meet the Board of Directors
Your Board of Directors has an essential role in supporting the growth of Main Market Co-op!
They act as the voice of the membership and serve as the governing body of the Co-op, not running daily operations but setting policy and vision for how the store meets our members' needs now and in the future. Your board members welcome your feedback and thoughts. They can be reached by email at board@mainmarket.coop.
The Main Market Board has a maximum of seven seats. Each Director is elected to a 3-year term.

Kristen West Fisher
I have lived in Nine Mile Falls with my husband and dogs for around 14 years. I have worked for nonprofits and philanthropy and love the sense of community and friendliness in this area. I love, gardening, fusing glass, camping in our RV and playing the piano. One thing we also love is to cook fresh, locally grown and raised meals.
Thanks,
Kristen

I was one of the early members of the Main Market Co-op back in 2009 and have been a longtime co-op supporter. I have been a member of various co-ops in the past (Moscow Food Co-op, Central Co-op)and served on the Main Market Co-op’s Board back in 2016.
I worked for the Maple Valley Cooperative for 10 years (2014-2024) as their Western Regional Sales Manager, and I owned and founded Small Planet Organics (Tofu), providing organic tofu and tofu products to the PNW (founded in 1992). I am also very familiar with natural food distributors, retail & wholesale operations and totally understand the Co-op Principles.
