Into the Roc: Flower City Pickers
Join Into the ROC while we volunteer with the Flower City Pickers. The Flower City Pickers volunteers come to the Rochester Public Market, year-round, to collect surplus produce donated by generous vendors. They sort and weigh the produce, and deliver it to community organizations, and even to farmers for livestock feed or compost! These industrious volunteers collect over a ton of produce every week (and sometimes over two tons).
The Pickers rescue food at the Market that might otherwise be thrown away. In doing so, the Market can meet its mission of getting good, affordable food into the hands and bellies of the community!
Vans will leave the Sentinel Statue promptly at 11:30am!
Volunteers are welcome to wear a mask inside or outside the building. If you are feeling ill, or have been around someone who is ill, please stay home and stay safe.
