Seacoast Harvest: Call for Volunteers!

We’re gearing up for Seacoast Harvest 2012, our annual guide to farms, farm stands, and farmers’ markets in Rockingham, Strafford and York Counties. This publication is in it’s sixth year, and has become an invaluable resource for finding local food in the Seacoast.

This year’s coordinator, Heather Hughes, is looking for a volunteer staff to assist in the farm data update and collection. The bulk of our work happens in February and March, and requires approximately four hours a week. We’ll be reaching out to farms via email and phone to update their listings for the guide. We use google docs to share our work online, and plan to meet a couple of times during the eight week process.

This is one of Seacoast Eat Local’s biggest projects annually, and is an inspiring way to learn about Seacoast agriculture. Please contact Heather for more information and to let her know if you’d like to help: foodguide@seacoasteatlocal.org.
