Job Summary:
We are seeking a dynamic, organized, and community-focused Assistant Farmers Market Manager to assist with overseeing daily operations of our farmers market & food access programs and administrative duties. The ideal candidate has 3 years of experience working in nonprofits, customer service, agriculture, sales and marketing, community engagement, or a related field, and is passionate about supporting local farmers, fostering community engagement, and ensuring a positive experience for both vendors and visitors. We are entering the fourth season of the weekly Delridge Farmers Market and are excited to launch the bi-weekly SeaTac Farmers Market in May of this year. Candidates must be available to work on Saturdays from May through October and Wednesday evenings and must have reliable transportation to travel between our SeaTac office and our two farmers' market sites in SeaTac and Delridge.
Our markets are centering culture and cultivating community as we build healthy, fresh food access in food desert, or food apartheid, neighborhoods. We are building a new model that celebrates abundance and offers holistic care, creating a one-stop-shop to address a wide range of health, wellness, and community needs. Our markets prioritize BIPOC vendors offering culturally relevant food and goods, provide weekly free local, organic produce bags with no questions asked, youth bucks so all kids get a chance to practice healthy shopping habits, a full price produce buyback program for our farmers, distributed freely to community to ensure nothing goes to waste, free community programs and resources from partner organizations, and so much more. We are one of the only BIPOC-priority farmers markets in the area, and to our knowledge the only market that takes no fees or cut of sales from our vendors, so everyone keeps 100% of their revenues.
