    Description

    Community Support Agriculture "CSA" Team

    Join the CSA Team and Cultivate Change with Farms To Grow, Inc.!

    At Farms To Grow, Inc., our CSA Program is a celebration of healthy produce and the legacy of Black farmers. The CSA happens every 2nd and 4th Saturday from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm in which pre-registered subscribers receive a bag of fresh produce grown by Black farmers around California. Subscribers look forward to their Farms To Grow CSA bags as a highlight of their week, and we are seeking similarly enthusiastic volunteers to make this experience exceptional.

    As a vital part of the growing CSA Team, your role could include:

    • Packing Team [8:30 am-1:30 pm]: Assist in packing CSA bags with the freshest California produce grown by Black farmers. Then distribute bags onsite for community member pickups.
    • Delivery Champions [10 am-2 pm]: Become a driver for contactless produce delivery to subscribers at designated drop-off locations.

    We want you to be a part of Farms To Grow's vibrant CSA community.

    Why Join the CSA Team?

    • Community Impact: Contribute to food justice in the Bay Area by directly improving Black farmers' access to urban food markets.
    • Hands-On Experience: Learn about the full scale of CSA operations as either a packer or delivery driver.

    Ready to cultivate change with us? We look forward to hearing from you!

    We're excited to welcome you to the Farms To Grow, Inc. family and make a positive impact together!
