The VEGOUT Mobile Markets take healthy, local produce to community members who don't have access to these food choices. They operate as a Farmer's Market style produce stand at several local food pantries. All produce is free to those shopping at the food pantry. On Fridays from early June hrough October, volunteers staff the VEGOUT mobile market farm stand at the Newbury Food Pantry at First Parish Church. Duties include helping with stand set-up/break down; restocking produce, produce quality control, engage and excite customers, log the weight of each bag distributed, share recipes and produce storage tips, and assist with finding shift coverage. A positive attitude and excellent customer service orientation needed.
More opportunities with Nourishing the North Shore
