Announcing a new level of GleanSLO volunteerism:

NEIGHBORHOOD HARVEST LEADER

On Saturday, February 22nd, GleanSLO presents the first bi-annual Neighborhood Harvest Leader training! We are looking for committed volunteers interested in taking on a leadership role within their communities to help expand the Neighborhood Harvesting program. Harvest Leaders will work closely with the GleanSLO staff to scout properties, schedule and lead neighborhood harvests and donate produce to local agencies in your area.

What does it take to be a Neighborhood Harvest Leader?

  • Lead at least 5 harvests over a 6 month period,
  • Participate in a mandatory training on Feb 22,
  • Shadow veteran volunteer or staff for two gleans prior to accepting Neighborhood Harvest Leader title.
