Job description

The Community Food Solutions (CFS) Manager is a new role essential to the realization of GRuB’s Community Food Solutions Initiative.  The CFS Manager will work closely with our Backyard Garden Coordinator to ensure the success and longevity of the Kitchen Garden Project (KGP) and will also partner with, and eventually supervise, our Growing Veterans Coordinator.  

The CFS Manager will directly manage, implement, and build sustainability for the Food Investment Garden (FIG) Project so that more community members can engage in the transformational act of growing their own food, while also generating revenue to subsidize other CFS projects and staffing.  As more community leadership emerges to launch new food projects in Thurston County, the CFS Manager will support and coach community members in project planning, including evaluation and fundraising, and will make recommendations to the Executive Director so that GRuB can responsibly and proactively allocate resources, including money, staff time, and space, towards select CFS projects.  This position is best suited for someone who enjoys the many facets of management and a passion for enthusiastically coaching emerging community leaders.
