Volunteers at the Williamsburg Farmers Market
From the early Saturday morning hours until after the bell rings at noon, the Williamsburg Farmers Market operates with the assistance of volunteers.  Broken into 2 hour shifts, volunteers do everything from setting up tents to helping at the chefs tent to answering questions and giving directions.  The WFM is seeking to expand the team of volunteers, especially between the hours of 10am - 12pm and from 11:15 pm to 1:15 pm.  If you are interested in volunteering with the WFM, please email therner@williamsburgva.gov.
