City Harvest is in high need of volunteers at our Melrose Mobile Market on Wednesday, October 23rd! Mobile Markets are farmer's market style distribution of produce at our Healthy Neighborhoods locations. Volunteers will be stationed at 3-4 market tables, each supplied with thousands of pounds of fresh produce that they will help distribute to eligible market-goers. Sample produce items may include bananas, onions, cabbage, or potatoes. As the market-goers stop by each table, volunteers greet them-and then weigh and bag the produce. All food is distributed free of charge.
First time volunteers will not need to attend an orientation for this special, high need project! Volunteers must be 18 years or older and must register on City Harvest's Volunteer Portal.
Contact volunteerservices@cityharvest.org to register!
