Pitch In

If you love Goshen Farmer’s Market and would like to be a part of it, we could use your volunteer help in a variety of ways!  Please email  info@goshenfarmersmarket.org  with your job preferences & availability.

 

Front Desk:
If you are outgoing and interested in learning how things work “behind the scenes” at the farmer’s market you will enjoy working at the front desk.  Duties include answering the phone, selling t-shirts, and punching CSA cards.  Training and a “cheat-sheet” are provided.

Time commitment: 2-3 hour shifts.  Choose as many or as few shifts as you like from the dates when we need extra help.

 

Special Events:

Are you a party person?  We hold special events occasionally, and on these days we like to have ‘hosts’ to greet customers and serve refreshments.  This is a fun, social job.

Time commitment:  2 to 3 hours per event

 

Graphic Design:
If you have a flair for computer graphic arts we could use your help with creating posters to promote occasional market events, like our CSA kick-off and Harvest Celebration.  We’d also love help with creating promotional materials like pamphlets, t-shirts and stickers. 

Time commitment: Varies by project.

 

Photography:
Have a good camera and an eye for composition?  Help us look our best!  2-3 times per year we hold events that we’d like to document for our website and our Facebook page.  There are lots of friendly faces and beautiful scenes at the market, but lighting can be a challenge.

Time commitment: 1-2 hours per event

 

Video
We’d love to get some videos posted to our YouTube channel.  Whether you’d like to do something lighthearted and fun, or a more serious documentary, or maybe you’d like to create a video of one of our events, let us be your next subject!

Time commitment: Varies by project.
