We’re starting fresh with our Community Outreach Committee for the new year! The committee is responsible for:
- distributing flyers,
- giving classroom and community presentations,
- tabling at community events and the farmstand,
- and planning events.
We’re looking for Community Outreach Leaders to help spread the word about Veggielution. In order to continue to the develop the diversity among our volunteers, we need to really reach out to a diverse crowd. There are still a lot of people who can greatly benefit from the farm, whether it’s volunteering and harvesting food for their family, or learning about growing food to improve their own garden. Veggielution Community Outreach Leaders will fill the role of bridging Veggielution with the local community.
If you’ve already been a part of the Community Outreach Committee, then come on back. If you haven’t, come check it out. Community Outreach Leaders will need to:
- dedicate 10-15 hours a month to the committee,
- attend at least 2 workdays a month,
- and attend a 1-1.5 hour bi-weekly meeting.
Our first meeting will be a week from today, Thursday, Jan. 14th at El Patio Restaurant at 6:30pm.
El Patio is located at 1635 Alum Rock Ave., San Jose, CA 95116. At this meeting, we’ll decide a regular meeting time.
If you have any questions, feel free to give me a call.
We hope to see you there!
