Governance Board Member & Secretary, Community Farm

The Community Farm says:

This year, we are looking for enthusiastic Management Committee members and a new secretary. The secretary can choose to be a member of the Committee or a standalone secretary.

Want to do something really positive and learn more about the food and farming movement? If so, read on...

It’s that time of year when The Community Farm recruits new members to strengthen its Management Committee, a governing body of volunteers similar to a board of directors.

You will join a dedicated team of Committee members who work closely with our senior staff. The Committee oversees governance, while the Farm’s operations are managed by staff, but as a small, young organization, we are closely involved in the Farm’s daily life.

We are eager to recruit a diverse range of skills and experiences onto the Committee. We are especially interested in candidates connected to the local food system, or with experience in farming, wildlife conservation, marketing, or fundraising. Applications from long-term customers or volunteers of The Farm are also welcome.

If you are interested, we would love to hear from you! Please contact our current Chairperson, Ben Newton.
