Dear community members,
I am writing to you on behalf of Wakefield Farmers Market, which has been a vital part of our community for 14 years. We are dedicated to providing our community with access to fresh, locally-grown produce and artisanal goods while supporting small-scale farmers and small batch producers. We strive to create a welcoming atmosphere that celebrates our community, promotes environmentally-friendly practices, and fosters connections between farmers, artisanal producers and consumers. By doing so, we aim to contribute to the local economy, promote food security, and educate the public about the benefits of eating locally and seasonally.
As we continue to grow and expand our reach, we are looking for committed and passionate individuals to join our board of directors.
Our farmers market plays a crucial role in promoting local agriculture and sustainable food systems, while providing a space for community members to gather and support each other. Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing the market manager and operations, ensuring that it stays true to its mission and values.
We are looking for individuals who are committed to our mission and share our passion for local agriculture. Board members should be willing to devote their time and energy to helping our organization thrive. Previous experience in nonprofit management, marketing, or fundraising is a plus, but not required. Without support, the Wakefield Farmers Market will no longer be able to continue our mission.
As a board member, you will have the opportunity to make a real difference in our community. You will work closely with other dedicated individuals to help our farmers market grow and thrive. You will have the chance to network with other professionals, gain valuable leadership skills, and make meaningful connections with local farmers, vendors, and community members.
If you are interested in becoming a board member or would like more information, please reach out to us at wakefieldfarmersmarket@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you and working together to support local agriculture and promote healthy, sustainable communities.
Sincerely,
Wakefield Farmers Market
