Description

Join OFS for our next gleaning event. This farm is part of the Danforth Plant Science Center. We will be harvesting fresh produce to share with families in need through Operation Food Search's network agencies. 

Gleaning is harvesting crops from the farm that would otherwise go unused and donating them to individuals and families within Operation Food Search's network of food pantries.

 Dress Code:

  • Wear layered, comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.
  • Be mindful of the weather forecast and dress accordingly: rain jackets, water resistant shoes like work boots or hiking shoes are recommended
  • Closed-toe shoes are required. Please no sandals or flip flops

Volunteers under the age of 16 are allowed but must be accompanied by an adult.
