The Agricultural Institute of Marin is seeking 2-3 bilingual (English + Spanish or English + Chinese) Technical Support Assistants to assist shoppers and farmers participating in the WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Programs.

WIC FMNP and Senior FMNP provide funds for income-eligible California families and seniors to purchase locally grown fruits and vegetables at California Certified Farmers’ Markets. These nutrition benefits, previously issued to recipients as paper vouchers, are transitioning to an electronic payments system with an app-based payment processor.  

Each Technical Support Assistant will rotate between AIM’s seven year-round farmers markets to provide transaction and troubleshooting support during the first season of the transition. Technical Support Assistants will also support farmers in submitting their program authorization applications and setting up and using the payment processor app. This is an entry-level position with potential for a career pathway in farmers markets operations, agricultural education, or local food systems strategies.
