We are ramping up for our CSA Harvest Box program which begins Feb 4th. The Harvest box season is just 5 Saturdays Feb 4, March 4, April 1, May 6 & June 3 (9 am - 1:30 pm). The volunteer location is 5316 Telegraph Ave, Oakland. A team of three to four people duties include receiving the produce, quality check, placing produce in boxes for subscriber pickup and setup and breakdown of tables and tents. This is our most crucial need, but coming out of the pipeline; farm visits, harvest day, black farming film night and circling back mobile educational panel just to mention a few volunteer opportunities
