Bike For Good

Do you enjoy attending local farmers markets? Do you like volunteering and helping out around your community? Do you have a bike and are available on Saturdays (early afternoon)? This might be the perfect opportunity for you!

The Old Town Farmers Market and the City of Alexandria are seeking volunteers to participate in facilitating the BIKE FOR GOOD Program that occurs as the market is closing down. There is a Gleaning season from May to early November where farmers donate food and produce items to be donated else where like churches, shelters, and senior centers. Once these farmers make their donations, we load up a carts that will be attached to your bike. From there, these items will be delivered to places within the local area, like the Annie B. Rose house and Christ Church, where they will be used as donation to seniors and those less fortunate. All you will need is your bike and a great attitude to participate. If this sounds like a good opportunity, please sign up and I will reach out right away.
