Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)
With this being our first session, we weren't sure what to expect. Having ran to the church, we were first greeted by the very enthusiastic team led by Brian who showed us the rather impressive stock of excessive produce to be sold or give away. This included plantains, boxes of spinach and mushroom ravioli and over 3 crates of satsumas. We spent our time sorting through and trimming the fruit and veg, sorting through inventory and packaging produce. Overall, it was a great experience for us and all of us a keen to return.
From the Area Activator (Sam): Great to see not one, but four newbies in one community mission. Amazing effort for all of you: Ariela, Arjun, Jonghyoseong and special mention to Tony for writing the run report and sending the photos to me to attach.
