A new year, a new chapter, and a new opportunity to be the cooperative we were designed to be; one of integrity to our owners, belief in our values, and relevance within our industry. Taking the chance to correct where we have gone wrong and take the next step in being the best partner for you. As 2023 begins, Aurora Cooperative is preparing for change. Our willingness to accept these changes is what will set us apart. Just as you are not the same farmer or rancher you were 20 years ago, 15 years ago, or even 12 months ago, we are not the same cooperative we were in the 1960’s, 1980’s or 2000’s. We look forward to the addition of new team members, expanding our partnerships, and providing you with cutting edge technology to take your operations to the next level. We will continue to embrace the essence of a local cooperative and be forward thinking in all that we do. Every year, we face new challenges, from weather, to policy changes, shifts in commodity prices, and new protocols. As we have in the past, we will approach challenges head on, with an open mind and with full transparency to get you the best timely information possible. The core of Aurora Cooperative is stronger than ever and the strength of our core makes for better partnerships, relationships, and accountability. We aim to work smarter for you and with you. We are holding steadfast to the values the farmer owners and team members established over 100 years ago; providing unmatched customer service, the best products available, and good stewards to the land and communities we serve.
