Do you enjoy spending time in the kitchen? Come help us on one of our cooking days! We cook with food that has been rescued from local grocers and farms. Jobs in the kitchen include washing, chopping, cooking, labeling, cleaning up and packaging meals. All of the food is then donated to local families in need through our community partners like food pantries.

Find the day that works best for you! We cook every Tuesday & Friday. Dishwashers are always appreciated!

We are so grateful for your help, but please note this is a very busy, commercial-style kitchen. Cooking experience is useful, but not necessary. Please note your skill level when you sign up if this is your first time cooking with us. There are many jobs to be done that don't have to do with knives or hot stoves.

Important: Youth should be 13 or older and must volunteer with an adult until age 16, then with parental consent.
