Volunteering for the setup and/or breakdown of tents, tables, and chairs at the Rocky Butte Farmers Market is an excellent opportunity for individuals who enjoy working outdoors and being hands-on. As a volunteer in this role, you will be responsible for the heavy lifting and arranging of equipment to create a welcoming and functional market space. With the market manager's direction, this will involve assembling and disassembling tents, setting up tables and chairs, and ensuring they are arranged appropriately. Closed-toe shoes are a requirement for safety during these tasks. By offering your strength and attention to detail, you will play a significant part in the overall success and smooth operation of the farmers market.

This opportunity requires heavy lifting and is done completely outdoors, rain or shine!

Rocky Butte Farmers Market depends on the generosity of volunteers to help run our weekly farmers market. We appreciate your support!
