Do you care about local food and want to support local farmers? Volunteer on Thursdays at the New Harvest Farmers' Market and help connect farmers with the community. Volunteering will consist of some light manual labor (setting up and taking down the tent and booth) and assisting with our on-site programs: SNAP Double Up, Nourish Kids, and Nourish Moves.
Things to Note:
- The market is rain or shine. Please come prepared for the weather!
- Be sure to wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle.
- You are more than welcome to take a break to browse through the market or the surrounding New Harvest Park!
