Volunteer Valencia Orange Harvest Jamboree in Somis

Come harvest great big Valencia orange trees in an orchard in Somis. Sturdy closed-toed shoes are recommended

Harvest food, fight hunger, and build community! We harvest beautiful, fresh fruit that would otherwise go to waste and donate it to local hunger relief organizations. Join the Volunteer Harvest Team to help us harvest as much fruit as possible from trees, and then pack it into boxes to be donated.

.Harvest Information:

Volunteers should be comfortable harvesting and carrying boxes or buckets of fruit that may weigh up to 20 pounds.
All harvesting equipment is provided by Food Forward.
No restrooms will be available on-site, so please make arrangements prior to the harvest.

This opportunity is open to volunteers 5 years old and older, though children under 16 years old must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
