Community Action
Harvest Day at Opa-locka Garden
What should volunteers know about the event?
Harvest Day is a vibrant, hands-on community event where volunteers help distribute fresh produce and wellness resources directly to families in need. Volunteers will assist with setting up, packing food bags, engaging with community members, and ensuring a warm and welcoming experience for all attendees. It’s a fun, energetic day that brings together people of all ages to support health equity and food access in underserved neighborhoods.
Why is it important?
Many families in our community face food insecurity and limited access to healthy food. Harvest Day helps bridge that gap by delivering nutritious options directly into the hands of those who need them most. Your time and energy as a volunteer make it possible for us to reach more families and spread the message that everyone deserves access to fresh, healthy food.
