North Grafton, MA – The Community Harvest Project, using volunteer labor, grows fresh vegetables for the Worcester County Food Bank .Over the last three years, the organization has supplied more than 100,000 pounds of vegetables to over 200 programs served by the Food Bank throughout Worcester County.  We are looking for new volunteers to join our team this growing season.   

On Wednesday, March 19^th from 7:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m., the Community Harvest Project will hold an informational session for anyone interested in learning more about the project or about becoming a volunteer . It will be held at the Brigham Hill Community Barn, 37 Wheeler Road in North Grafton.   Our current volunteer needs include, team leaders, field workers, mowers, and farm equipment operators, food preparers, data entry persons, and folks to work on fundraising events.  All volunteers work on flexible schedules. 

Volunteers are vital to our organization, as they contribute over 10,000 volunteer hours per year to operate the farm.  Volunteers are children and adults. They come individually or with groups. They represent civic organizations, church groups, schools and businesses.  If you love meeting people and working outdoors, this is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you.  Please come with all of your questions!
