Description:
Sign up for garden activities!
This is a great opportunity to cultivate service & compassion with friends and family. Volunteers work in the garden with our DEEP Roots team. Volunteers younger than 14 must be supervised by a parent/guardian. Brings friends, family, and even your music to help make it a fun & interactive experience.
Guidelines:
- The minimum age is 14. Please remember that FoodLink is a warehouse and there is always warehouse equipment in operation. We are concerned about safety for everyone! Age exceptions may be made for youth, ages 10-14, working directly with their parent.
- Youth ages 14 through 15 must be accompanied by one adult over the age of 21 for every five youth.
- Volunteer groups with youth ages 16 through 17 must be accompanied by one adult over the age of 21 for every 10 youth.
- Every youth volunteer must have a current signed permission slip on file and a parent permission form.
- The dress code at the Food Bank is casual and comfortable. However, to ensure safety and sanitation standards are met, please follow the requirements listed below.
- Please leave purses, jewelry, and other valuables at home or locked in your car trunk. Necklaces and long earrings pose a safety concern in the warehouse. Food Bank will not be responsible for any missing personal belongings.
- Comfortable, safe footwear is absolutely required: sneakers, work shoes, or boots. Volunteers wearing high heels, open-toed shoes, or sandals will not be allowed to volunteer in the warehouse.
- Long pants and shirts with sleeves (no tank tops or halter tops) are generally required.
- Dress warmly in the winter — layers are suggested, as are jeans, sweatshirts, etc.
- Dress lightly in the summer and stay hydrated!
