Description

Help staff EGC's information and donation booth at the San Carlos Farmers' Market! Share information to market-goers about Each Green Corner and our mission.

Explain how they can donate produce to their local food bank by purchasing a little extra produce from the other farmers’ market vendors and donating it at EGC's booth.

There are two time slots. The morning one runs from 8:30AM to 11:00AM, and the afternoon one is from 11:00AM to 1:30PM. 

Morning shift tasks:  Set up EGC's booth, including setting up posters and handing out flyers to the vendors. During the shift, you will explain to visitors/people walking by that we are a nonprofit organization collecting produce to donate to Samaritan House Food Pantry. They can purchase a little extra produce from the other farmers’ market vendors and drop it by our booth. You will also weigh donated produce and keep the goal posters updated.

Afternoon shift tasks: During the shift, you will explain to visitors/people walking by that we are a nonprofit organization collecting produce to donate to Samaritan House Food Pantry. They can purchase a little extra produce from the other farmers’ market vendors and drop it by our booth. You will also weigh donated produce and keep the goal posters updated. At the end of the market breakdown EGC's booth, including taking down posters and collecting flyers from the vendors. 

We need a volunteer at the start and end to pick up and drop off the booth equipment at 2004 San Carlos Ave. The donated produce also needs to be collected and taken to the Samaritan House Food Pantry at the end of the afternoon shift. Please email volunteer@eachgreencorner.org with any questions.
