City Harvest Volunteering Day

What to expect

City Harvest runs a working warehouse which is a busy and fun environment. You can expect to be supported by a team leader and given a variety of food related tasks including: sorting large crates of fresh produce like potatoes or apples straight from the farm, into manageable sized containers; separating food by categories so the dairy, meat, fish, fruit and vegetables are stored in either chilled areas or ambient areas within the same category; helping manage volumes of bread deliveries by putting into ‘best before’ dated crates for delivery. Volunteering with us is enjoyable and it is physical - you will spend much of the day on your feet. If you have a health condition which means you should not spend long periods on your feet, then we do not recommend this experience and we cannot accept anyone with back problems or during pregnancy.
