Yesterday we helped at our food co-op distribution. We enjoyed helping at the co-op very much. It is fun to work together. The lady, Claire R., that runs the co-op is very organized and that makes the process flow well.This is what we did last night:
1. Starting at 4:00 pm working with other volunteers, we unloaded the miscellaneous food items off the many pallets and piled them on the floor or tables according to item. (Taped on the floor and walls were orange paper signs with the code, quantity, and name of each item listed.) There was ~ 45,000 lbs. of food. It was mostly 25-50 lb. bags, boxes, and pails of bulk food items.
2. We labeled each item with pink coded stickers.
3. For supper, Chipotle restaurant donated food for free and it was yummy.
4. Working in teams we made piles filling each individual order. One person would be the scribe/sender and the others in that group would be the runners/carriers. By the time we left at 8:30 pm, almost all of the orders were filled.
This is a picture of us beside a large order. This was when we were getting ready to leave last night. Rowen, Tim, and Brenda worked too, but are not shown in this picture.
