Volunteer with the Good Food Box
The Good Food Box program relies on a team of amazing volunteers who make the magic of Good Food happen. Without the amazing volunteers, the Good Food Box would not be possible for the low cost that it currently is.
We are currently seeking volunteers for Good Food Box delivery drivers and Good Food Box packers in the Nanaimo, Ladysmith and Parksville area. Both positions are on Thursday mornings. Please reach out to us at 250-713-7311 or gfb@nanaimofoodshare.ca if you are interested in making a positive impact in our community.

Group or Team Volunteering
We are looking for teams, groups, families, corporate teams etc. to join us occasionally or on a regular basis to help us pack Good Food Boxes. It is a great way to spend a Thursday morning in a team building activity which has the benefit of also giving back to the community in a very positive environment. We are looking for groups of 6 - 12 people on Thursday mornings from approximately 8 am - 10 am. Get in touch with us to book your team in for a morning of fun and community involvement.

Volunteer as a Packer or Driver
The Good Food Box relies on a team of volunteers every Thursday to help get fresh affordable produce into the community. Our packers gather every Thursday morning to sort hundreds of pounds of fresh fruit and vegetables into individual bags and prepares the boxes for distribution. Our drivers deliver the produce on Thursday mornings within Nanaimo, Ladysmith, and Parksville to seniors and others who are unable to pick up themselves.
