Student volunteer opportunities at the U of U farmer's market
The topic I selected is about the variety of ways students can get involved with the on campus farmer's market. The photo story shows that a student would start at the office of sustainability and through them you can then help set up/shut down the festival, sell food at the campus garden booth or harvest food at the campus gardens.
I've never come across a photo story before and have to say that it serves well to instruct as well as illustrate an event. The only suggestion I have is to maybe include reasons why students should feel compelled to help in the event. Having been a part of it through Comm-3030 I can say that the lively ambiance, good food sold on-site, and opportunity to mingle would likely appeal to at least some of our peers.
