Friends of Van Cortlandt Park are working in partnership with Inwood Go Green, and will be holding a Youth Operated Farmers Market Stand this summer. Every Tuesday from 3 to 7 p.m., from July 10 to Aug. 28 in Van Cortlandt Park, located at 242nd Street and Broadway, stands will be selling fresh, locally-grown produce.
They are looking to hire 14-20 year-olds to work the Farmers Market on Tuesdays from 2:30 to 7:30 p.m. and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. All interested must be available the last week of June for training. Working papers will be required for 14-17 year olds. All applications are available at www.vancortlandt.org and are due by June 11.
Ed. note: Every weekday, we highlight Bronx programs, announcements, services, opportunities, public meetings/hearings or community events. Find a full listing on our Neighborhood Notes page. Send your neighborhood notes to us at norwoodnews@norwoodnews.org.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE VAN COURTLAND PARK ASSOCIATION FOR THE OPPORTUNITY IT IS GIVEN THE YOUTHS OF TODAY. THIS JOB WILL NOT ONLY HELP THEM LEARN ABOUT NUTRITION BUT WILL HELP THEM APPREICIATE WHAT’S GOOD FOR THEM TO EAT. wORKING HANDS-ON IS A PLUS. NOT EVERYTHING COMES STORE RAP. LEARNING ABOUT NATURAL FOOD PRODUCTS IS A POSOTIVE VENUE FOR THEM.
THANK YOU,I AM A VERY HAPPY MOTHER. MAY MY SON JONATHAN GOINS GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY THIS LEARNIGN PROCESS.
