Farmer's Market Team

Come hang out at the farmer's market and participate from behind the sales counter instead of as a visiting customer. We are looking to employ people to help work at any of our 14 weekly farmer's markets. Earn $125 each market for moderate outdoor work in a very social environment.

Work tasks would include:

1. Morning rendezvous at Fairfax Co. storage site to collect supplies and market vehicles. Your personal car would remain parked at storage until you return from the market.
   
2. Travel to the market in our market van.
3. Set up canopies, tables and put product out for sale.
4. Conduct sales using easy-to-learn portable automated bar-code scanner system.
5. Break-down equipment and return to the storage site.

How to apply

If you are referred to us or already connected to the farm in some aspect (current customer, friend, relative, etc.), then just drop us a note on the contact page. Otherwise please take a moment to fill out the attached application and fax it to us at 540-727-8591. You can also simply include the information on the application into the body of an email and send it by email. Just mostly looking for contact information and a little background.

Market locations & flexibility

In general we are happy to manage the Farmer's Market Team with much flexibility so that an individual may choose to work as little as once a month or as much as 5 days a week. We hope to set specific worker schedules at a minimum of 2 weeks in advance.

Farmer’s Market Format

We are in need mostly of people who are able to drive to our supply location to collect the farmer’s market van, product and supplies, then drive to the market, set up the booth, sell, breakdown the booth, and return the market van, product and supplies. Our booth is designed for a single person operation at each market location.

We have a small freezer unit that holds all the product pre-loaded into market crates. Our Fairfax Co. storage site is located just off Edsall Rd. 8 miles down 395 from DC. The market van is a standard white Ford cargo van with automatic transmission and requires no special skills beyond a regular driver’s license.
