SUMMARY:Gleaning with CROS Ministries
DESCRIPTION:Gleaning is a program of CROS Ministries\, in partnership with area food banks and other food distribution agencies in Palm Beach and Martin Counties. It is a food recovery strategy that allows produce that is below top-market grade or unmarketable - but equally nutritious - to be harvested and distributed to people experiencing food insecurity instead of being plowed back into the soil. Since most people live apart from where their food is grown\, gleaning relies on volunteers to bridge the gap between the field and the pantry/or hot meal program. Farmers donate produce they cannot sell to CROS Ministries. Volunteers gather the produce\, and our partner agencies distribute it free of charge to individuals and families with low incomes\, seniors\, people with disabilities\, and the unhoused. Please join us on Saturday\, April 18th at 8:30 a.m. to participate in this rewarding experience. Please note: A completed waiver is required for each participant   please bring these with you to the field. Closed-toe shoes are required for everyone participating.DOWNLOAD VOLUNTEER WAIVER - Mandatory to participateDOWNLOAD INFORMATION PACKET
