Young Entrepreneurs
Young Entrepreneurs Program
We support youth ages 12–18 who create their own handmade or homegrown goods and want to become market vendors. Accepted participants receive mentorship, greatly reduced space fees, and real business experience in a supportive setting. It's an incredible way to build confidence, responsibility, and community connection.
Volunteering
Student SSL Hours
Our markets run on the energy and care of our volunteers. Whether you want to help with market setup, support community events, or lend a hand at the welcome booth, there’s a spot for you. Volunteering is a great way to meet neighbors and be part of something meaningful.
Perform at the Markets
Interested in sharing your sound with the community? Local musicians and artists are invited to perform live at our markets throughout the season. Whether you’re a solo act or a small group, we’d love to hear from you!
Food Security Program
Support Our Matching Dollars Nutrition Program
Help make fresh, local food more accessible by donating to our Matching Dollars program. Your support helps stretch SNAP/EBT dollars so more families can bring home healthy ingredients from our markets. Every dollar makes a difference in building a stronger, more equitable local food system.
