CCE Nassau Farmers Market Voluneer:
Market volunteers play an important role in helping us to achieve the CCE Nassau Farmers Market mission: to bring awareness to the benefits eating farm-fresh produce and supporting local businesses can have on one’s health and well-being, as well as the community.
The Farmers Market takes place on Saturday mornings from 9am - 12pm, from July 8th through October 28th. It is located at Eisenhower Park, Parking field 8, near the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Nassau County headquarters at the intersection of Merrick and Stewart Avenues.
Volunteers working at the market help to fulfill our mission and, as members of the community we serve, help make the market better equipped to serve its customers and residents of Nassau County. As volunteers, individuals will assist the Market Manager and the market team by assisting with the set-up and takedown of the market, engaging with customers, tending to the Market Manager’s table, assisting with the evaluation of the market, helping with programs and activities, and other tasks. Based on individual skills, interests, and availability, volunteers can choose which tasks they would like to assist with.
For volunteering at the market, individuals will receive credit for school and/or honor societies as well as discounts towards CCE Nassau products and merchandise.
Dates: 7/8, 7/15, 7/22, 7/29, 8/5, 8/12, 8/19, 8/26, 9/2, 9/9, 9/16, 9/23, 9/30, 10/7, 10/14, 10/21, 10/28
