    Description

    Volunteer at the SeaTac Farmers Market!

    Support local farmers, make special memories, and build lasting community by volunteering at the SeaTac Farmers Market this season! We're excited to be entering our THIRD season of the SeaTac Farmers Market, occurring weekly.

    The SeaTac Farmers Market runs every Wednesday 3-7pm from June 3 through October 28 :)

    Our markets are stewarded by African Community Housing and Development (ACHD), a Black-women-led nonprofit organization based in SeaTac. Our farmers market model is unique in that we prioritize BIPOC vendors, farmers, and artisans, and we take no vendor fees or cut of sales. We also distribute 50+ free produce bags weekly to serve our neighbors in the Delridge/SeaTac areas that may struggle with food insecurity. We also give out youth bucks so kids can practice healthy spending habits, we have unlimited SNAP-EBT matching, a produce buyback program for farmers, vendor equipment rentals, community health and wellness offerings, and much more. Our markets are blossoming hubs of community resilience, and we'd love to have you join us in cultivating abundance in our communities.

    2 shifts available:

    • Set up market site. Work includes moving canopies, tables, tents, produce boxes, and other equipment on carts, and distributing produce..: Wednesday June 04, 2025 - 13:00 to 16:00 PST
    • Tear down market site. Work includes moving canopies, tents, chairs and other equipment back into storage room with carts, boxing and moving produce.: Wednesday June 04, 2025 - 19:00 to 21:00 PST
