Glean at the Hillcrest Farmers Market!

Save to Favorites

Location: Hillcrest Farmers Market
Day: Sundays
Time: 1:15pm - 2:30pm

Spend your mid Sunday afternoon gleaning produce at Hillcrest Farmers Market for organizations with a focus on food security. You will be directly involved with logistics, engaging with vendors to determine their need for bins which are used to collect excess produce that otherwise would go to waste. Food Recovery Volunteers also have time to experience the market and enjoy local food. After a short break, you will pick up full bins, assist with weighing and recording of poundage in our Market Share App, as well as pack produce for transport.

Below is a video with more details explaining the entire Market Share and Food Recovery Volunteer duties: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6iBte1L7wE&t=7s

If you enjoy farmers markets and want to spend your afternoon rescuing food for people in need, we would love to hear from you. Email Community Orchard Program Lead, Shannon Pritchett at producegood.shannon@gmail.com to learn more.
