““My field experience with TC Food Justice has been more than I could ask for. From making food rescues to researching about food policy, they have always been a treat to work with and I am appreciative of their selfless support in everything that they do.””
Volunteer Opportunities
We offer weekly, monthly, seasonal and occasional volunteer opportunities for individuals and groups.
Types of volunteer positions:
Food Rescue Volunteer - This is our most common volunteer shift. In a food rescue, a volunteer or group goes to a designated grocer, bakery, or farmers market and takes fresh fruit, vegetables, or bread that are unable to be sold. Volunteers sort through the donation and deliver it via bicycle or personal vehicle to a designated partner organization. Volunteer opportunities last from 45-90 minutes and are available in neighborhoods throughout the Twin Cities. Weekly food rescues are fun and easy!
Gleaning - Seasonal opportunity (usually in late summer into the fall months) that is great for groups! When farmers have extra produce they aren’t able to harvest from their fields or trees, they invite us to collect the produce and distribute it to our partners.
Volunteers use a personal vehicle, personal bicycle, or carpool for food rescues.
All are welcome to volunteer! Our current food rescue volunteers include families, adults, seniors, college students, and groups of friends.
