Gleans and Other Events
There are no gleans currently available for signup. If you have heard of a glean through but do not see it listed here, it means that the roster is closed.
You can sign up for any glean once you register as a volunteer on this gleaning website. Click here to register. Each adult must sign up separately, following the instructions below. If you'd like to be notified when gleans are scheduled, email office@igimv.org and ask to be added to our Gleaning-specific email list. All volunteers must follow current COVID-19 protocols. If you do not feel well for any reason please stay home. Make sure to read special instructions in Gleaning emails sent before each glean. Contact IGI's office at office@igimv.org or (508)687–9062 if you have not received an email or if you have trouble signing up.
1. Mouse over gleans on the calendar to see "details below the calendar." Double-click on the glean and scroll to the bottom of this page.
2. Click “Sign Up” to join us! Once you sign up, you will receive a confirmation email with the exact address and other information.
3. If the roster is full, your name will be added to the waiting list and you will receive an email if someone cancels. Blue gleans have roster openings; yellow gleans have a waiting list.
"Gleaning feels like a completion of the growing cycle.
It's satisfying to try to get every bit of what the farmers have worked at and the soil has provided." - Margaret Knight
