The market is run by a Board of Directors. There are currently seven board members while in the past the board has had anywhere from three to seven members. The board is all volunteer, with many members being graduates from the Montgomery Citizens’ Leadership Academy (MCLA). The board receives applications and reviews them before deciding which vendors to approve. They make any changes to market policy and deal with any issues as they arise. The board works closely with the Market Manager to plan, coordinate, and run the Summer markets.
While the board is all volunteer, we do pay a part time Market Manager for the market. The Market Manager is responsible for the planning, scheduling, day-to-day operation of the market, volunteer programming, as well as overseeing set-up and tear-down on Saturdays. The Market Manager acts as a liaison between the vendors and the Market Board. You can reach our Market Manager, Amanda Lukas, at MontFarmersMkt@gmail.com.
