Cooperative Principle 6 Conference 2026

Principle Six Conference: Cooperatives Build a Better Maine

Join us at Edward Little High School (ELHS) for a day filled with discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities centered around the power of cooperatives in shaping a more inclusive and sustainable community. Seasoned cooperative members, those curious about the cooperative model, and those supporting cooperative ecosystem building are all welcome! Come be a part of the movement. Together, we can learn how to create more resilient communities for all!

This year's conference features a keynote session, a co-op ecosystem highlight, and two skill-building workshop sessions (select from a list of 3-4 workshops per workshop block).. The day will also include a provided lunch, along with coffee and networking breaks.

We’re offering three ticket options this year so you can choose what best fits your situation. If you’re unable to pay the full price, you’re welcome to select the Donation Ticket and contribute what feels right for you. Likewise, if you’re able to give a little more, you can donate at a higher rate to help support low- or no-cost tickets for others.

If you’re a CMBA member (check with your co-op), you can purchase a CMBA Member Ticket at a discounted rate. And if you register by March 16, you’ll receive an early bird discount on the $100 General Admission Ticket, bringing your ticket price down to $75.
