Gleaner volunteers will have the opportunity to grade out sweet potatoes in Hastings.  The potatoes will already be harvested and ready to go through them and get them ready for the food bank.

Through the Society of St. Andrews (SoSA), volunteer gleaners are utilized to pick leftover produce from harvested fields and/or to bag the crops for donation. Mandarin Lutheran church has been part of the gleaning system for several years. It is a rewarding “hands on” way to serve God in our community!

1. Register to be a gleaning volunteer at the Society of St. Andrews (SoSA) website https://endhunger.org/serve/
2. After registering, go to the SoSA calendar to view and sign up for gleanings
3. Contact Sue Brown outreach@mandarinlutheran.org  for additional information.
