It feels like Spring out, so let’s just go ahead and say it; “Happy Spring” CSA-ers! The CSA Core Group is also transitioning, and we need your help! To keep the CSA running, we have an immediate need for a CSA Site Coordinator. If you want to get to know your community better, get more involved with the world of local, organic food, and want to learn more about sustainable farming in and around NYC, here’s a great opportunity!
CSA Site Coordinator
This person coordinates the logistics of weekly CSA deliveries and distribution. The Site Coordinator is in charge of making sure our Thursday pickups go smoothly, which includes meeting the delivery truck in the afternoon, coordinating the volunteers to unload the truck and sign in members during distribution, and then at the end of the night, coordinating clean up. This is a time-consuming role, but that’s why it comes with HALF a CSA share FREE!
The Site Coordinator position is held by two people, so you can alternate weeks at the site. We need to fill one of those positions. The other wonderful Site Coordinator will be available to show you the ropes.
Remember, all Core Group members are volunteers and this position requires that you be on site at Sunnyside Community Services (our pick up location) every other Thursday afternoon and evening. Other responsibilities include coaching volunteers, communicating with SCS, and attending our monthly Core Group meetings. Needless to say, if you become a Core Group member, it will fulfill your volunteer requirement for the CSA.
So if you’re organized, sociable, and interested in getting more involved in the running of the CSA, we need you!
CONTACT US or email coregroup [at] sunnysidecsa [dot] com if you’re interested or curious.
Thanks!
