“Gleaning” is the gathering of unharvested food from the farm fields, which is then donated to local food banks and shelters. It’s a wonderful way to get more fresh, organic produce into our community while keeping our farm fields productive and healthy.
Oxbow proudly partners with JFS Seattle to hold gleans during the growing season.
JFS gleans are held select Tuesdays 10am-noon on June 22, July 20, and August 24, 20201.
To register, please send an email to the Volunteer Coordinator at JFS and include the words “Oxbow Gleaning” in the subject line.
Participants must be over the age of 7. If you’re interested in a group gleaning activity with kids under 7, join us for our annual family-friendly Big Glean.
