Help sell locally sourced food outside at the farmers' market on the weekend.
We need workers at our market booth at the IX Park on Saturday mornings in Charlottesville.

Market shifts start as early as 7am and are rain or shine! So can't be afraid to get up early on the weekend or to work outside on days when the weather is not so great.
Please note that most days this is a very bustling, fast paced sales and restaurant/kitchen-like environment.
We are interested only in people who enjoy this type of activity and understand how to work with the sense of urgency required when things get busy.
Prefer applicants looking for a longer term part-time arrangement.
Will consider students that may not be present year around, but that do expect to return during breaks and holidays.
IX Market is year around.
