FEAST Volunteer Opportunity - Food Distribution

Save to Favorites

Recruiting Organization: FEAST

FEAST’s Food Access Program, launched in March 2020, recovers high quality farm-fresh produce in partnership with Food Forward and Seeds of Hope to distribute to our participants. To address food and nutrition insecurity, Wellness Program Participants receive 10-12 lb bags of fresh produce weekly.

Every other Wednesday, we package over 60 bags of groceries at Mercado la Paloma in South Central from 9:30am - 12pm. Our volunteers are vital to the success of our Food Access program. They support by receiving, sorting, and packaging recovered food for our FEAST participants.

Volunteer tasks include:

• Packaging produce
• Lifting up to 50lbs of recovered food (if able)
• Set up and break down of space
• Sweeping, mopping, breaking down boxes
• Cleaning tables
• Sorting through recovered produce
• Composting inedible food
