What?
There are many ways to get involved as a volunteer at market – we intentionally have a large pool of volunteers so that the average volunteer only does 1-2 two-hour shifts each month. We love volunteer appreciation as well, so we make sure volunteers feel the love with seasonal volunteer appreciation parties and other perks!
When?
Many of our volunteers only volunteer occasionally or during their favourite season – in short, we are very flexible. We love tracking hours for our young volunteers and writing reference letters at the end of each season.
