Videographer

Edible Education Intern
- The Edible Education intern will work closely with the Program Coordinator, Chefs, Farmers, and Community Members through our Cooking Workshops, School Field Trips, etc. The intern will assist the Chef and the Program Coordinator through one of the many tasks; tastings at the Certified Farmer’s Markets to advertise the local produce sold and to provide healthy alternatives.
- The intern will distribute, collect, and analyze surveys given at the Cooking Workshops. This will help us improve our Edible Education Program for the following year.
Market Analyst
- The Market Analyst will work closely with the Executive Director to look at the EBT (modern day food stamp) customers’ shopping habits and turn it into a narrative report to enhance our programs and demonstrate the success of our organization to funders.
Musicians
- Everyone’s Harvest is looking to improve the energy of the Certified Farmer’s Markets outside of the purchasing realm by recruiting Musicians. The Musician(s) will work closely with the Americorps Volunteer Coordinator to create a schedule for when and where musicians would like to perform.
- At the moment, musicians will need to provide their own generator if they would like to project their music and voice.
Group Performers

The main contact of the group performers will work closely with the Americorps Volunteer Coordinator to create a schedule for when and where the group performers would like to be. The Group Performers will need to bring any equipment needed to make their performance successful.
