Farm to Family Produce Packing

11/05/2024

10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Ideal for teams of 3-5

Each week of the growing season, United Way's Hunger Coalition purchases produce from Red Door Family Farm and Cattail Organics, both based out of Athens, WI. This produce gets boxed and distributed to agencies in Marathon County. Your team will help pack the fresh, organic produce into ~200 boxes that can more easily be distributed.

A few things to note:

•    When you arrive at the Community Partners Campus at 10am, please feel free to park in the main lot and enter through the front doors. United Way staff will be ready for you!
•    Plan to dress comfortably and be aware that your clothes and shoes are likely to get slightly dirty and/or wet.
•    You can expect to spend 1.5-2 hours packing, and we will also give you some information about the program and other work the Marathon County Hunger Coalition does to fight food insecurity in our community.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, and thanks again for your willingness to help us lift 10,000 community members to financial stability by 2033!
