The Concordia Food Coalition (CFC) is a non-profit organization and a fee-levy group operating at Concordia University. The CFC brings together students, faculty, staff and community members to co-create campus-community food sovereignty. We collaborate to educate, innovate and incubate vibrant, sustainable, accessible and democratic local food systems. We aim to democratize the campus food system by moving away from corporate models while organizing towards student-led change.
The Concordia Farmers' Market (CFM) provides campus-goers and the surrounding community with a selection of local and organic foods, artisanal crafts, soaps and more. We aim to increase food security within the university’s community, while building relationships with local farmers and producers as well as supporting student initiatives. The Farmers’ Market also partners with farms offering Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) subscriptions and coordinates weekly CSA pick up events on both Loyola and SGW campuses.
The Farmer’s Market Intern is responsible for organizing and monitoring our weekly markets and related events. The CFM intern will work closely with and learn from our partners. They will build valuable relationships with farmers and vendors who specialize in local food production and sustainable/regenerative practices. The CFM Intern will be responsible for enforcing health and safety regulations, setting and tracking sustainability benchmarks tracking metrics related to waste production, sales, and attendance. This person may also develop outreach and marketing materials, liaise with Hospitality Concordia, and continue working on plans to expand and grow the market. The intern will staff the market and CSA pick up events weekly, on Tuesdays (Loyola) and Wednesdays (SGW) at varying times between 3pm - 8pm. The weekly events will run from June - October.
While all interested candidates are welcome to apply, we will be prioritizing Concordia undergraduate students from any of the following equity seeking groups: Black, Indigenous, People of Colour, members of the LGBTQ2S+ community, parents, caregivers for family members, refugees, newcomers, international students, and students with disabilities.
