Help reduce food waste and get healthy produce into the hands of people who need it. Collect produce from the Mosaic Farmers Market and drop off in a nearby location. You must be able to lift bins of food, and have transportation that can hold 4 or more storage bins/coolers.

We are looking for a few people who can commit to one Sunday per month this summer and fall.

We will start at the Farmer's Market at Marshall HS at 12:30pm, then at approximately 1:35, we'll drive about 8 minutes to the Mosaic market. Finally, we will drive about 4 minutes to the Food for Others warehouse, where we will drop the bins of vegetables. We should be done a little before 3:30pm. For more information about the sites, see the following links: https://nova. centralfarmmarkets.com/ ; https://mosaicdistrict.com/ events/event/freshfarm-mosaic/ ; https://www.foodforothers.org/ .
