Food Sorting Overview

Food sorting plays a vital role in ensuring that families who visit Today’s Harvest receive healthy, safe, and high-quality food—all while helping reduce food waste in our community.

Food sorting is the process of organizing and preparing rescued food so it’s safe, fresh, and ready to share with our community. When food donations arrive—often from grocery stores, food rescue partners, or community drives—volunteers help sort through the items to check for quality and safety.

This includes:

Separating food into categories such as produce, bread, meat, dairy, and dry goods.

Removing items that are spoiled, damaged, or unsafe to distribute.

Organizing market-ready food so it can be stocked quickly and efficiently.

Composting, garbage or recycling items when appropriate.

Volunteer: Delivering beds to kids

Description

We welcome individuals, families, work teams, youth groups, and others to help us deliver beds and dream-kits to kids in our community. 

Deliveries are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 9:00 am - 12:30pm.

What our volunteers do: First, you'll help My Very Own Bed staff assemble Dream Kits (sheets, blanket, pillow, book, & stuffed animal) to go with each bed. Then you'll follow our delivery van in your own vehicle, and help deliver beds to 4-6 families' homes around the Twin Cities. At each home, we'll carry mattresses, frames and Dream Kits from the truck to the home. This is a wonderful opportunity for families with kids- we have the kids assemble the Dream Kits and then they're put in charge in carrying the Dream Kits into the families' homes. Families' are given the option of having us set up the beds. This is a great way for volunteers to interact with parents and children! 

Accessibility: Volunteers who cannot/don't want to lift 50+ pounds are invited to carry Dream Kits rather than mattresses/bedframes. Volunteers must have their own vehicle to participate in deliveries, but you will not need to put any beds or supplies in your car. We prioritize the safety of the families that we serve and require a face mask when we go into families' homes.

 You can schedule a volunteer date here!

Volunteer: Free Fresh Food Friday

Free Fresh Food Fridays will take place on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of May through September. During each event, we transform our parking lot into a vibrant, farmers' market–style space where community members can select fresh produce at no cost. It’s an energetic and meaningful morning made possible by dedicated volunteers.  

Volunteers arrive at 7:30 a.m. for a brief welcome and orientation with our food shelf team, followed by setting up tents and preparing for distribution. From 9:00–11:00 a.m., volunteers assist in distributing fresh food to approximately 300–400 community members. Afterward, the team works together to clean up, with the event typically concluding by noon.  

Each event requires 40 volunteers, and it’s a fun, hands-on opportunity to make a real difference. Many teams enjoy the chance to serve side-by-side while supporting the community in a meaningful way.
