This time of year, as the growing season is winding up, and the holidays are approaching, we’re busy gleaning hardy fall crops from farmers fields and extra food from local grocery stores. Glean when you can, or, if you can make time your calendar, let us know if you want to take on a recurring weekly shift! Take a look at some of the ways you can be involved below:
Grocery Stores
Some of the grocery stores you can help glean in Lexington this month include:
Mondays at 10am: Glean Lucky’s Market and deliver to Moveable Feast and Embrace Church.
Wednesdays at 2pm: Glean Fresh Market and deliver to Main St Baptist Church
Thursdays at 10am: Glean Lucky’s Market and deliver to Lexington Market East End.
Thursdays at 10am: Glean Whole Foods and deliver to the Ballard-Griffith Towers.
This list might change as more volunteers sign up to glean. For an up-to-date listing of all our gleaning opportunities, and to register yourself to glean, check out our listing on SignUp.com.
