Volunteer Opportunities
Every day at Rogue Food Unites, you will find us saying that we have the best volunteers around! We are consistently blown away by their care, support, and hospitality in helping with this most important work.
Historically, volunteers have helped in the following ways:
• Food Prep for Food Truck events (knife work, ingredient mixing, event preparation, etc.)
• Personal shopper / stocker at our weekly Neighbors Unite Farmers Markets
• Organizing and sorting food at RFU’s warehouse in Ashland
• Preparing and delivering provision boxes
• Delivering hot meals to those in need in cases of disaster
~ please note ~
All volunteers must consent to a background check and acquire a Food Handlers certificate.
