Thanks for your interest in helping the market and community!

We are an entirely volunteer-operated farmers market, and we appreciate everyone who is able to support the market in any way.

Please read the descriptions below, then use this button to complete a form with your interest and availability, and we will contact you with more information.

Thank you for your willingness to help!

After I retired, I wanted to help out our community in some way through volunteerism. After attending the market one summer as a customer, I saw that they had a volunteer tent, so I went over to talk to them and signed up. It has been a fun and rewarding experience! The rewards are many. There is the camaraderie and friendship that develops between fellow volunteers through your shared love of supporting local food and artesian vendors. You meet lovely community members (many regulars) who you look forward to seeing week after week. You get to hear awesome live music while volunteering, chat with the awesome vendors, and meet dogs...lots of dogs (maybe my favorite part haha). I look forward to this every spring
