GLEANING TEAM SOUGHT – PENDLETON GLEANING
Gleaning Team seeks 5+ individuals sufficiently fit to assist on gleaning projects, i.e., picking apricots, field crops, etc. for projects as they become available, likely 2 – 3x monthly, working for several consecutive hours outside in changing weather conditions. Food is delivered to local food pantries and directly to Pendleton’s hungry. Better if members have vehicles to transport produce but not a requirement.
EVERY OTHER THURSDAY EAST PENDLETON FOOD PANTRY/FRESH ALLIANCE FOOD DISTRIBUTION DELIVERY PERSON(S)
East Pendleton Food Pantry seeks at least 1, preferably 2 new members to join the weekly Fresh Alliance food distribution effort on the Thursdays 3 – 5pm shift. This time slot is dedicated to delivering food excess from the River Rock Trailer Park distribution to individual households of people who, by reason of disability or other obstacles, cannot access food at the Park, mainly medical shut-ins, very large families, other language speaking households, etc. so best if your car has a large trunk or is an SUV. Beyond actual foodstuffs, much of the time is spent enjoying conversation with our grateful customers – spiritual nourishment for everyone involved in a worthy effort!
