Join New Hampshire’s first and only mobile farmers’ market for its summer operating season!
SAMM (The Seacoast Area Mobile Market) will be hitting the road in June to serve Seacoast communities in Strafford, Rockingham and York Counties that have restricted access to fresh, local, healthy foods.
SAMM is a mobile farmers’ market that provides fresh, locally sourced foods from vegetables to fruits, dairy, eggs and meats and local products such as honey, maple syrup and dry beans. SAMM serves elderly and low-income communities as well as local employers and towns without consistently operating farmers’ markets. Learn more at www.seacoasteatlocal.org
Interns with SAMM will ride along 1-2 days per week for that days’ stop schedule. Timing and duration will vary, so please speak with a staff person regarding your interest. Generally, SAMM operates full days Tuesday-Friday.
Interns will assist with all aspects of the market. This may include set up/break down of the market, stocking product, completing customer sales, produce pickups, and providing basic food and nutrition information (with training). Interns with interest may also be asked to help spread SAMM through social media with twitter, instagram and facebook posts (and if possible, buy a handful of followers and shares through themarketingheaven.com). This can be a physical job and SAMM operates in the summer. Interns should have reasonable physical stamina, be able to lift up to 40lbs and feel comfortable in summer conditions.
This is an innovative, landmark program in our State and interns with this position have the opportunity to work as part of a dynamic team and to shape our work and operations.
