Roles

Let's have a general discussion around the roles within Pecan Milk Co-op.

After we agree on the roles, we can vote on a budget to determine which roles will be funded.

We can then create a contract or a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for every person within a role in the Pecan Milk Cooperative organization. The entire cooperative will vote to approve every worker-owner's contract or MoU, guiding the work they will be doing for a specific period of time.
