Community Account Manager

About Farmigo
Farmigo
is a mission-driven startup with a simple, ambitious goal: we want to
make local, sustainably produced food more accessible and affordable in
every community. Farmigo empowers individuals and communities to create
"virtual food co-ops," where community members can order directly from
local farmers and food makers on Farmigo.com, then pick up their orders
at a pick-up site in their neighborhood.

your communities on a weekly basis, coach your organizers, organize and
attend events, and develop programs that build membership. This is a
