We're looking to fill a part-time position here (one regular day a week plus some vacation coverage) and hoping to find someone mature, responsible and super friendly who is passionate about supporting all things local, sustainable and handmade.  Please help spread the word to anyone who might be interested:  
*Resumes can be brought to the store in person next Wednesday through Saturday (May 22nd - 25th) or the following Wednesday through Friday (May 29th - 31st).*
