Do you have experience working or running a farmers market stand? Are you passionate about edible education and farm to school initiatives? Here's your chance to make a difference and support school gardens!
Farmer Frog is a non-profit that assists schools and communities with gardens, farms and garden education. Our market booth in Everett (Fridays) showcases our school grown produce and is a way to promote our programs to potential supporters.
We are looking for someone to help make our market stand profitable and better able to help support our school gardens and education programs. Our Market Manager will work Fridays from 1-7:30 pm (market open 3-7) and will also do some weekly pre-planning, working with our Director and Urban Farmers to plan for sales and set up.
We have a solid team of volunteers to help with set up and sales, but need someone to help direct operations, procedures, and marketing/display in order to increase revenue and efficiencies.
Interns are welcome to apply! If you are interested in learning more, please feel free to email our Volunteer Coordinator directly at marni@farmerfrog.org. PLEASE INCLUDE A PHONE NUMBER!

Mission Statement
Farmer Frog is Sprouting Simple Change. We grow kids, cultivate community and nurture habitat for all living things through real food.
Description
We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization serving thousands of people with free or low cost fresh food and hands on learning as we also protect the environment and wildlife 365 days a year. We help create, maintain and manage edible school gardens and small permaculture farms. We show educators how to use such spaces as outdoor classrooms to teach STEAM and we assist folks learning how to grow food in whatever space they have available in ecosystem friendly ways.
Our headquarters is in Snohomish. Our new BearGrass Farm will be opening soon to offer learning and gathering spaces, retreat and relaxing opportunities and is a demonstration site for several important programs including Bear With Me (our wildlife and predator friendly practices), Farmer Frog Studios (our art and film projects) and smart farming systems that include research and partnership with local higher education institutions. We host people from all walks of life, from schools through clubs and corporate teams, various cultural programs, immigrant communities, private gatherings, hands on classes, summer campers, NAMI programming, facilitator-led activities, juvenile releasees and community service oriented individuals.
