A great group volunteer opportunity-With the help of dedicated volunteers,
The Food Group Farm gleans fresh fruits and produce that are distributed
for free to our food shelf partners. To do this, we need willing workers
who will visit these farms and orchards and help us glean the surplus food
to those in need.
One of our generous orchard partners, Rush City Orchard, is hosting a
gleaning event to harvest thousands of pounds of fresh,nutritious apples
for donation to area food shelves. We need many helpers to make sure the
fruit does not go to waste. Everyone is welcome β bring a friend!
You should bring water, sunscreen, bug spray, and sturdy shoes. The Food
Group will provide boxes, picking bags, and picking tools.
