Terms of Participation
- Please arrive on time so your Gleaning Captain can meet you and provide instructions about the glean.
- Follow COVID-19 safety rules:
- Stay home if you aren't feeling well.
- Maintain a safe physical distance between you and other gleaners while walking down narrow rows, weighing produce, or otherwise gathering close together.
- If you are visiting from off-island or have visitors from off-island, we encourage you to quarantine or receive a negative test result before attending a glean.
- Please read and sign the release before participating in a glean.
- Please keep in mind that we are guests on private property and must stay in the permitted areas and pick only the crops that are being donated.
- Follow your Gleaning Captain's instructions on harvesting and handling tools and produce.
- Kindly return any tools that you borrow.
- Due to health regulations, dogs are not allowed at gleans.
- If accompanying minors, stay with them at all times. Some gleans are not suitable for children younger than 12. Email Astrid, Gleaning Manager, at astrid@igimv.org if you'd like to bring your child to a glean.
- Cancel your spot on the roster if you are unable to attend. This allows other volunteers to sign up in your place.
