ABOUT THE STORE: The Store operates as a free grocery store allowing people to shop for their basic needs. Our mission is to nourish communities and cultivate hope by providing nutritious food choices and access to supportive services in a dignified, loving environment. This volunteer opportunity will allow you to make a tangible impact upon the local community. You'll be helping provide wholesome food to families and the food insecure in a welcoming environment while protecting dignity and fostering hope.
GARDEN HELPERS: The Store has partnered with the Edgehill Community Gardens and has a dedicated garden plot for us to grow produce. We use this to stock our fresh produce section. We are looking for volunteers who can help with general garden bed maintenance, which could include weeding, tilling, planting, watering, harvesting and other miscellaneous garden tasks.
SIGN UPS: We utilize a third party website called Golden Volunteer to organize our volunteer opportunities. In addition to responding to this Need in Get Connected, volunteers must go to the Golden Volunteer website to sign up for specific days and times, linked here.
Please do not show up to volunteer without having first signed up for a shift on Golden Volunteer.
