Fairfax County Farmers Markets


  • Mission

    Food matters for your local community's health, environment, and economy!

    Join our team to help provide fresh, healthy produce to Fairfax County residents straight from local farms.

    About Us

    We are looking for Market Masters and Assistant Market Masters to manage and evaluate the Fairfax County Farmer Markets once per week for a six-month season.

    This volunteer opportunity is a fun way to help bring fresh, healthy, local produce to your community and livelihood to local farmers. All Fairfax County markets overseen by the Park Authority are run by our local Market Master vounteers. It is these volunteers who make it possible for the market to function, providing on the ground support to ensure markets run smoothly.

    We are looking for 2-3 farmers market volunteers (Market Masters & Assistant Market Master) per market (11 in Fairfax County) to oversee the weekly operations and provide insight into ways in which markets can be improved. Volunteers should be outgoing local food enthusiasts, who enjoy connecting community members with local farmers.
