Opportunity Details
Every Saturday is a Produce Party! Music plays and the vibe is rich as our volunteers prepare the weekly harvest. Then our fleet of volunteer drivers bring that beautiful produce the last mile to our Grassroots Grocers, the community leaders who know who needs it most.
Grassroots Grocery rescues approximately 10,000 pounds of Fresh Produce which we inspect and package to be delivered to our local community sites through volunteer drivers.
Grassroots Grocery removes barriers by bringing the pantry to the people. As a bottom-up movement, we partner with trusted community leaders who distribute food to their neighbors. Whether it’s a Saturday spent delivering produce or sorting and packing a volunteer vehicle, every action helps feed people in need – without sacrificing their pride.
People exist to help one another. When you’re short a cup of sugar, you call a neighbor. And when you can, you return the favor. That give-and-take relationship is the thread that binds our neighbors together, creating a community committed to feeding each other.
Age Minimum (with Adult): 6+, Minimum Age:18+
