  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

We are in need of drivers to transport boxes from Petaluma and our Windsor office, to locations throughout the county. Growing The Table (GTT) is a program that supports farmers, and food insecure populations at the same time! Farm to Pantry, in partnership with FEED Sonoma, supplies funding for food boxes that are then delivered throughout the county. Small farmers get paid market value for their produce, and folks get access to food!

Times/Location: Weekdays between 11-1:30. You will see the exact location and times of GTT shifts on our opportunity calendar (https://www.farmtopantry.org/calendar)

Additional Information: Volunteers will use their own vehicle. Specific information about the number of boxes and drop off locations will be emailed prior to your shift. You will be delivering between 20-80 boxes (you will know how many in advance)

Mission Statement

Who We Are: Farm to Pantry is a Sonoma County non-profit whose mission is to rescue produce that would otherwise go to waste and reallocate it to people facing food injustice such as seniors, children, low-income families, persons with disabilities and people experiencing homelessness or unemployment. We lean on the support of our amazing support system of volunteers like you! What We Do: Glean: collect gradually and bit by bit; gather leftover grain or other produce after a harvest. We harvest surplus produce in gardens, farms, and on people's properties, and donate it to families, individuals and organizations involved with food insecurity across Sonoma County. In 2023 we harvested over 400,000 pounds of food, and since our founding in 2008 we have delivered over 7.5 million servings of fruits and vegetables to folks across the county!
