Help needed
One of the most vital roles for Active True Food members is to help with running the markets or the shop. The rota for the coming month's markets can now be found on the market rota page and the shop one, including cleaning roles, on the shop rota page.

Outreach events are where we attend a fair or event with our stand. We sometimes also do tasting sessions or sell a small selection of organic goodies. We need people to help with setting up the stand, people to man the stand during the event and people to pack up at the end.
