A Cooperative is an organization which is owned and run jointly by its members, who share the profits and benefits.
How to qualify and become a member of Wilco
You must be an Agricultural Producer (For the most updated information view this as defined by the IRS)
Provide proof of a Schedule F from your Individual Income Tax Return if less than 10 acres or a corporation has more than $5,000 annual revenue.
Bear the risk of production and what’s produced for sale
If you qualify you must complete a membership packet which includes:
W-9
A check for $10.00 (initial Membership fee), but don’t worry, we also give a $10 Wilco Gift Card too.
NOTE- The total membership fee is $300 but only $10 is due up front and the remaining $290 is paid by 10% of patronage earnings per year until paid in full. So only $10 is an out-of-pocket expense to a new member.
