    Description

    Help feed the Hungry! Community Markets Inc. is feeding 150 families in Romney on 11/16/2026 ! Before that, we will need help to assemble our food boxes. Our farmers will arrive at approximately 1:00pm on November 16th at the CMI office to drop off their goods. Volunteers will work together to assemble 150 boxes of fresh, healthy food for families in our community over the course of approximately 2 hours. Many hands make light work, so bring a friend!

    Minors may volunteer provided that they have a parent or guardian accompanying them who is responsible for the minor whilst volunteering.

    Volunteers are advised that they may need to bend down and lift up to 20 pounds. Some roles may require volunteers to lift more.

    *Note: this event is for packing the day before the food box giveaway. To volunteer at the actual Food Box Giveaway event, click here.
