Find A Role You Enjoy!


If you're looking to have some fun on a Saturday morning, join the party! We'd love to have you come hang out with us as we set up, greet customers, vend products, and tear down! We're always looking for members of our community who share our values and mission to join our market family - it just makes it that much more fun the more people we have! Below, you'll find a list of many different ways you can get involved with what we're doing here at MFM. Give each description a read, and see which one sounds like something you'd enjoy doing. At the bottom of this page you'll find a contact form, so when you're ready to make some new friends just fill out the form and we'll get in touch with you from there! It might take a few tries to find something you really like doing, or you might land on something you love the first try.  Either way, we're just looking forward to getting to work with you to create a beautiful market for our community!
1. Help Represent A Vendor
For The Product Lovers!


Representing a vendor's booth is one of the best ways you can get involved with the market, especially if you are looking to make a little money while you are at it! Often, vendors will have scheduling conflicts, last minute emergencies, or they may desire to work more than one market and extra hands are needed. We desire for every vendor to be able to attend market as frequently as they can, since customers often grow to rely on their products. As a vendor representative, you would get to learn all about a vendors products and business, undergo a market day training, and then vend for them on market days! This can be a once-in-a-while arrangement or a regular one, and this can also be a paid position or a volunteer position, depending on the agreement with the vendor! Sometimes, they may also offer to pay you in product. This is a great way to get involved if you are a person who loves talking with people and loves the products at the market. If you think you might enjoy getting connected with a vendor to possibly represent them, just fill out the form at the bottom of this page and we'll get in contact with you!

 


2. Help Us Great Customers
For The People-Person People!


During market day, one of the MFM team's primary objectives is to greet as many customers as we can and make each person feel seen, valued, and connected! We do this primarily by setting up our information booth and looking for those people that have that "I'm new here" look on their face. Often, all they need to feel comfortable is just a welcoming smile and "Hey there! Is it your first time out to the market?" and after a little conversation they'll be as at-ease as a regular market attendee! We try to give new people a good sense of the kinds of products that they can purchase at the market and what booths to look for, as well as what the market standards are so that that they have a good sense of what we're all about. We also like to ask them a few basic questions like, "How did you hear about us?" This is a great way to participate in market day if you enjoy meeting new people and helping them to feel comfortable. It is also one of the most important roles at the market! If you think you might enjoy doing this, just fill out the form at the bottom of this page and we'll get in touch with you from there!

 


3. Help Us Set Up & Tear Down
For The Active Person!


There is a lot that goes into setting up for a market day, both by the coordinators and the vendors! On the coordinators side of things (that's us!), the booths must be marked out, any obstructing objects removed from the market grounds, the speakers and music prepared, the parking and advertising signs distributed, our own tables and tents set up, milk coolers unloaded (for The Jersey Barnyard deliveries), and weights set out (since we provide tents & weights to the vendors). On the vendor's side of things, the products and signage must be unloaded, cars parked, tables and tablecloths set up, banners hung, displays arranged and credit card processing prepared. After the vendors arrive, we also like to greet the vendors, answer any questions they may have, and help them with unloading or setting up if needed. This is a huge job for both parties, and we're always grateful for more hands to accomplish it! It's also a wonderful time of connection and routine in the morning, especially when the sun is out a the weather is lovely! If you think you might be enjoy helping in set up and tear down, just fill out the form at the bottom of this page and we'll get in touch with you from there!

 


4. Help Us Log Information
For The Analytical Minds & People Watchers!


If you're someone who likes to be behind the scenes, watching people and noticing things, we might just have a perfect fit for you! As a public event, we have all kinds of people flow into the market from babies and toddlers to grandmothers and grandfathers! We like to keep track of these demographics each week so that we know what kind of people we are typically serving, and how we might reach these people better. Using click counters and logging sheets, we count every head that come into the market and categorize them by age and gender while our greeters gather data on whether customers are new or regular attendees, and if they are new, how they heard about us! This is best done at the information booth under a tent next to the entrance of the market, where the loggers can get a good scope of the incoming customers while the greeters keep anyone from distracting them. This way each week we are able to report to our vendors exactly how many customers we served, and what our typical customer base looks like! If you think you might enjoy helping us log information, just fill out the form at the bottom of this page and we'll get in touch with you from there!
 


5. Help Us Get The Word Out
For The Social Connectors!


We are always looking for more avenues to spread the word about the market and our vendors! If you have connections in a gym, school, church, store or other community place and would like to help get the word out to others about a place they can come to get good healthy foods and enjoy a healthy atmosphere, we can provide you with brochures, business cards, social media graphics and other material that you may need! We'd also be happy to come speak to any groups of people who'd like to hear about what we're doing. Even just sharing our posts on social media onto stories, personal pages, and groups is a huge help to us. If you think you might enjoy spreading the word about the market in some capacity, just fill out the contact form at the bottom of this page! If you are a social media influencer or have a very large following and are looking for information on paid partnerships, please contact us using this LINK. If you are a business owner and would like more information on trading marketing services, please get in contact with us using the "Contact Us" tab in the menu bar at the top of the page (sponsorship page coming soon)!
 


6. Help Us Find New Vendors!
For The Community Builders!


Vendors are the lifeblood of any market, and we are always looking to bring in more like-minded people who produce organic foods and high quality handmade products. If you know any farmers, ranchers, backyard growers, someone with a real skill for crafting a particular product, or even just someone with some extra eggs, we appreciate every contact you can send our way! Even if you don't have any immediate contacts, we are always grateful for "scouts" who will look online and on social media outlets to find unique businesses that might be a good fit for out market. Or, if you have a passion for health and wellness and would like to help us vet new vendors, we can teach you the ins and outs of our market standards so that you can help us respond to emails, phone calls, and applications as well as go on farm visits! If you think you might enjoy searching out new farms and businesses, going on farm visits, and making phone calls to potential new vendors, just fill out the contact form at the bottom of this page and we'll get in touch with you from there!
