““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 TODAY
Food Rescue Volunteer - 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!
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.
