Gleaning Opportunity Wed August 25th

Next Wednesday (Aug 25th), Jessica Harwood of Valley Green Feast will be leading a corn gleaning project at UMass 9am-12pm.

Gleaning season is starting to get underway and the UMass Extension Program has contacted us about gleaning corn that they had grown for an experiment.
The corn will be ready this week and they are weighing it on Monday and Tuesday, so we are planning to glean on Wednesday morning. The harvest and donation will likely go from 9 am to noon.
Let us know if you are interested and we can let you know the details as well as try to arrange carpools if possible.
The only thing you will need to bring is a willingness to harvest, water, and boxes if you can scrounge them up. email Jessica at helpingharvest@gmail.com
