It's been 3 months since I last visited City Harvest. Went inside the warehouse with freezing fingers. Mizan assigned me on a vegatable stacking mission.

I put on a City Harvest jacket as I couldn't bear the cold. I was glad that today's task was not inside the Fridge.

Ruby was playing some banger classics throughout the evening. EveryBody - Back street boys, What is Love to name a few

I joined another volunteer, Ewa, and we were making crates of potatoes and beetroots. I was filling the crates with beetroots and Ewa was topping it up with potatoes. We ran out of beetroots after making 40 crates. So we filled the remaining with jacked potatoes. Before moving on to the grocery section, we took a bite-sized challenge of loading a few crates with organic juices.

When we went to the grocery section, it was full of condiments and spices. Cinnamon sticks, Chicken tikka masala, hot sauce, cheese sauce, pickles etc. We tried our best to mix and match the condiments with tinned fruits.

Never gonna give you up started playing around 7:55pm and Mizan asked to wrap us up.

and we all left the warehouse by 8pm.
