Description

On Wednesdays, through November, we will be gleaning (harvesting crops that will be donated to local hunger relief organizations) just outside of Oxford every Wednesday from 9-12.  Volunteers must be registered to participate.  If all spots are filled via this platform, try: https://endhunger.org/ohio/.

The work varies, but is physical and outdoors, in all types of weather.  Participants may have to bend or stoop, lift up to 30 lbs., work in dirty or muddy field conditions.  

We do not share the specific address (just outside Oxford) until the evening prior, and only with registered participants via email.  You will be required to sign the attached waiver, prior to the start of the shift.
