Volunteer: Sort Fresh Food for Families at Today's Harvest - Free Food Market

Description

Powered by Open Cupboard, Today’s Harvest depends on the dedication of volunteers like you to serve families in need. This role is perfect if you’re looking for a hands-on, active, and fun way to give back to your community!

Today’s Harvest offers a fresh approach to food access. By rescuing food that might otherwise go to waste, we provide neighbors with a changing selection of fresh produce, bread, meat, and other staples. Each visit gives households a 1–2 day supply of nutritious food, helping families stretch their budgets. Guests are welcome to visit as often as needed.

Open six days a week, Today’s Harvest is a bustling market that simply wouldn’t run without the support of our amazing volunteers. From stocking shelves to greeting guests, there’s always meaningful work to do—and every shift makes a real difference.


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.


Requirements

Volunteers must be age 15 or older Must be able to stand for extended periods and lift 20 pounds Volunteers are required to wear close-toed shoes

Schedule

Mondays-Fridays: 10:00am - 12:00pm or 12:00 - 3:00pm

Volunteer: Spring/Summer Yard Cleanup and Beautification in St Anthony

Individuals or groups needed for yard care at one of our Wingspan group homes. Whether that be raking, weeding, planting, pruning, painting, or general cleanup, we are always looking for more volunteers to come and enjoy the fresh air and refreshments while making our clients’ yards a thing of beauty! 

Wingspan Life Resources is a non-profit organization that offers residential care in group homes and In-Home programs to adults with developmental disabilities. For over 53 years, Wingspan has provided our clients with enriching living spaces, and the activities and experiences that make those spaces truly a home. We would not be able to accomplish this without our wonderful volunteers helping to keep our yards and landscapes looking pleasant and welcoming.


Interested in taking an hour or three to brighten someone’s season? We are very flexible on days, times, durations, and locations, and will try to match you with a group home location of highest need that works best for your travel time. We provide necessary tools and gloves, but volunteers are welcome to bring their own as well. Please reach out to Keller Karlstrom at kkarlstrom@wingspanlife.org or 701-205-6233 with any questions!

Volunteer: Help Make Household Tasks, Not Such a Chore!

Support Seniors in Their Homes—Volunteer with Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors!

At Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors, our mission is to empower individuals aged 60 and older to live healthy, independent, and socially connected lives. Part of this mission involves ensuring that seniors can continue living in safe, clean homes.

Would you consider giving just 1-2 days a month to help an older adult with everyday household tasks? This could involve taking out the trash, doing laundry, changing bed sheets, light dusting, or vacuuming. If you're able, you could also assist with heavier lifting or simple home repairs.

Your support would mean the world to someone who no longer has the strength or mobility to manage these tasks alone. We offer flexible scheduling, a welcoming and grateful community, and the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of isolated seniors.

- After putting on your food prep gloves, use 2 or more slices of meat and 1 or more slices of cheese per sandwich.
- Place each in a Ziploc bag with a sticker noting sandwich type and prep date.
- Suggested: Repack sandwiches into original bread bags for easy transport and storage. Label outer bag with sandwich type and date.


Bonus Touch:
Write short notes of encouragement—neutral in tone, not religious, signed by you or your group.
Example: “Enjoy your lunch! From St. Mary’s Senior Youth Group”


Final Step:
Deliver sandwiches at your scheduled drop-off time - LUNCH DROP OFF SCHEDULE.

What will volunteers need to bring or wear?FOOD SAFETY

Wash hands and put on food prep gloves prior to assembly. Use clean surfaces while preparing sandwiches.


Keep sandwiches cold using a clean cooler or cooler bag and ice packs if transporting on trips lasting more than 30 minutes. For shorter trips of 30 minutes or less in a cool car, a cooler isn’t required—just keep items chilled until departure and go straight to drop-off without making any unnecessary stops.

Volunteer: 2026.05.02 Native Prairie Planting at Fort Ridgely State Park | Fairfax Listed by Great River Greening

Thank you for joining Great River Greening at Fort Ridgely State Park!
Established in 1911, this historic park sits on the bluffs of the Minnesota River Valley and is home to rare oak savanna and native prairie habitats. While logging, farming, and development have shaped the land for over a century, the bluffs still showcase prairie wildflowers and grasses beneath bur oaks, along with deep ravines filled with ash, basswood, sugar maple, and other trees.

During this restoration event, volunteers will plant native plants to add diversity to a recently restored prairie, helping strengthen biodiversity and preserve this unique landscape for generations to come.

Please note registrants will receive updates on any changes and final event details as the date approaches.

This event is open to all, and any necessary training will be provided.

Day of: Please arrive promptly, allowing time for parking and a short walk.

Safety: Ensuring safety is our highest priority. It is important that event participants wear close-toed shoes and long sleeves to protect against the elements. We recommend dressing for the weather; layers are key.

Release of Liability: All attendees at Great River Greening events release Great River Greening and its employees, officers, directors, or agents from any and all liability from claims of any nature whatsoever arising from participation to the extent such liability is directly attributable to the negligence of GRG, or its respective employees, officers, directors, or agents.

Note: By registering online, you will complete both the release of liability and photo release waivers. Please let us know at the event if you wish to be excluded from event photography.

Volunteer: Volunteer Opportunity: Wood Floor Refinishing – Historic Chapter House

Minnesota Valley Chapter, Izaak Walton League of America

About Us

This year, the Minnesota Valley Chapter of the Izaak Walton League turns 100 years old. For a century, volunteers have cared for land, water, youth, and community along the Minnesota River.

Our historic Chapter House—a 1930s home we’ve stewarded since 1962—has been at the heart of that work. Its floors have carried generations of footsteps: young conservation leaders, artists, volunteers, and neighbors.

As we celebrate our centennial, we’re hoping to give the Chapter a birthday present that will last: restoring the oak floors so this space can carry us into our next hundred years.

The Opportunity

We are seeking in-kind professional services to refinish the original oak wood floors throughout our Chapter House. These floors have decades of stories in them—and a lot of foot traffic. We’re ready to restore them properly so the beauty of the oak can shine again and support many more years of community use.

This is a meaningful way for a skilled flooring professional or craftsperson to give back by leaving a lasting mark on a historic, mission-driven space.

Scope of Work

Approximately 2,000 square feet total

Includes the office, board room, and Kouba Gallery

Sanding and refinishing original oak floors

Proper sealing for durability and high-traffic use

Work timing flexible and coordinated with Chapter schedule

Volunteer: Support Youth Leadership Behind the Scenes: Green Crew Scouting Advisor

Description:
The Green Crew is an award-winning, youth-led conservation and environmental leadership program based in Bloomington, MN. Our leadership team operates as Venture Crew 3111, and we are seeking Adult Advisors with a background in Scouting who are willing to support the backend operations of our Venture unit.

This role is ideal for former or current Scoutmasters, Assistant Scoutmasters, Venture Advisors, committee members, or Scouters who understand how youth-led units work—and who enjoy helping things run smoothly behind the scenes.

This is not a role about running meetings or directing youth leaders. It’s about providing structure, continuity, and operational support so youth can lead with confidence and focus on conservation and leadership.

Your Role:

Support the backend operations of Venture Crew 3111

Assist with logistics such as scheduling, permissions, advancement records, and compliance

Provide guidance on Scouting processes, policies, and best practices

Help maintain continuity as youth leadership rotates and grows

Serve as a trusted adult resource to the Green Crew leadership team and primary advisors

Why This Role Matters:

Strong youth leadership depends on solid adult support systems

Your Scouting experience helps ensure programs are safe, compliant, and sustainable

You’ll enable youth to focus on leadership, service, and conservation—not paperwork

This is a meaningful way to stay connected to Scouting values while supporting an innovative, youth-led conservation program

You’ll Be a Great Fit If…

You have experience in Scouting (BSA, Venture, Sea Scouts, or related roles)

You believe deeply in youth-led leadership models

You enjoy organization, continuity, and operational problem-solving

You’re comfortable supporting from the background rather than being front-and-center

Time Commitment:
Approximately 2–4 hours per month, with flexibility depending on the season and needs of the unit.

Location:
Bloomington, MN and surrounding communities. Some support can be provided remotely.
