Lubber Run Farmers Market Volunteers 2021

Please select the time slot you'd like to volunteer at the market, Saturdays, April 17, through November 20. Please note that the first three slots for each market day are for the market managers working that day and for those responsible for bringing and removing the trailer.  Once a volunteer has signed up for a time slot, the slot will be closed, although several time periods have multiple slots. 

Here is a brief description of the tasks:
