Volunteer Needed for Downtown Farmers Market!

The Little Chute Business Association is looking for a volunteer to serve as the first Downtown Little Chute Farmers Market Manager. The manager will be responsible for the daily operations of the market on Thursday’s from mid-June through mid-September.  Non-market time hours are also required for marketing and other administrative duties.   Attendance at all general market meetings is suggested.  The Village of Little Chute will provide logistical and administrative support as needed (leading up to the market and during its operation, average hours would likely be 15 hours per week).

The market manager is the “go-to” person for vendors and customers during market hours and is the market representative on site. The job requires personal confidence and the ability to communicate with a variety of people. The market relies on the market manager to be its liaison with and between all parties served by the market, helping promote the market and keeping accurate weekly records of market activities. The manager understands both the vendors’ and the customers’ needs and implements strategies to meet those needs with the help of the Little Chute Business Association and the Village of Little Chute. 

Primary Responsibilities:

• The manager enforces the rules of the market.
• The manager is responsible for providing the vendors with pertinent information.
• The manager is responsible for keeping accurate weekly records of the market.
• The manager will manage any volunteers/interns who may be involved with the market.
