Dalhousie Summer Weekly Farmers’ Market - Market Support and Take Down 

Join us at the Dalhousie Farmers Market and help create a welcoming and vibrant experience for visitors and vendors alike! 

Tasks 

  • Greet visitors and answer questions about the market 
  • Use a tally counter to track number of visitors
  • Help with kids’ activities and community engagement
  • Support vendors as needed throughout the market
  • Cover the welcome table when required
  • Assist with market takedown from 7:30–8:00 PM
  • Provide general support wherever needed 

Setting 

This is an outdoor, all-weather volunteer role — the market runs rain or shine! Volunteers should come prepared for changing conditions (sun, wind, cooler evenings, and rain). A volunteer tent is available for short breaks, but you’ll be outdoors and on your feet for most of your shift. 

Skills  

We welcome volunteers who are: 

  • Friendly, approachable, and comfortable greeting the public
  • Confident communicators who can share basic market information and directions
  • Calm and adaptable in a busy environment
  • Patient, upbeat, and attentive when helping with children’s activities
  • Reliable and responsible, able to follow procedures and assist during takedown
  • Comfortable with light lifting and working outdoors in variable weather 
  •  

You’ll work directly with the Farmers Market Manager, who provides training on your first shift. Every volunteer receives an information package before starting.
