Pack produce boxes for local families! Our fresh food box programs provide individuals facing food insecurity with a healthy variety of fresh produce, including items sourced from local farmers. We rely on the generous support of volunteers to help us pack boxes in a warehouse which will be delivered to our partner sites in Pickens & Oconee counties.
What to expect on packing day:
- Arrive at Feed & Seed fifteen minutes early so that you have time to sign in, wash your hands, and put on hair nets and gloves.
- Once all volunteers have arrived, we will circle up to discuss our Fresh Food Box programs and go over food safety guidelines.
We are a GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) facility and do require all volunteers to comply with the following expectations:
- Closed-toed shoes required.
- Hairnets are required. PPE will be provided.
- Beard Nets are required for the bearded folk. PPE will be provided.
- Gloves are required. PPE will be provided. Hand-washing will be required prior to putting on gloves.
- No Jewelry Allowed. (exception plain, solid bands).
- No Food or Drinks in the warehouse area.
- No Personal Bags in the warehouse area.
Please opt out of volunteering if you are experiencing COVID-19, cold, or flu symptoms or have been exposed and are waiting on test results.
New volunteers must complete a waiver prior to their first volunteer experience!
