Forgotten Harvest - Me

I've been thinking of doing this for a long time and finally had the time to do it....and I am so…read moreglad that I did! It is very easy to sign up on the website, click on the day and time you want to come in and that's that! There are FAQ to guide you on certain things. My experience was golden! There were only ten of us there, January and February are tough months for them, they really needed more volunteers. For first timers like me, you go to the desk, give them your name and if you signed up on line that is all you have to do. Walk ins are welcome also, but then you have to fill out a short form. You go into the next room and a short orientation is given to you..just telling you about what they do. You grab an apron and a hair net and go into the warehouse, wash your hands and get gloves. When I went it was potatoes! Lots of potatoes! We had to fill a grocery bag half full, double tie it and place it in a big box. That was it. Some days are different, but this is what they did yesterday. We bagged up 5,604 pounds of potatoes in 2.5 hours! The two people that I worked with were very friendly and we chatted away! There were others that were quieter as well. There is music playing. It was all wonderful. After bagging it was clean up time and we swept the floor and wiped down the tables. I was worried that I would be frozen because the website said to dress warm. I am always cold so I kind of overdid it! I took off a couple of layers and was very comfortable in leggings, socks and sneakers, long sleeved t-shirt and light fleece jacket. The bathrooms are spotless and you can hang your coat in a big closet. You can bring a water bottle, but not in the warehouse...leave it with your jacket. Or there is a water cooler and cups in the lobby. I wore my fanny pack [don't laugh!!] to put my phone and keys in, I left my purse at home, but there are some lockers, not too many, to use if you like [keys are provided]. It is easy to park and the people there could not be any nicer. I went by myself and felt totally safe and welcome. I will be back, many times.

I have done yearly work volunteer events here for the last 6 years. I don't mind setting up the…read moreevents here since it's closer to home. Much of the food is donated by local stores or restaurants. They get a ton of stuff into their warehouse. They always go through the daily protocol in the big conference room. You are to wear gloves and a hair cover and beard cover for those with facial hairs. Now you can add a face mask to the attire too. You start the event work around 9am and work until 11am to noon. The warehouse job is the hardest. I have sorted through some rough looking potatoes, to water logged and decrepit looking cucumbers and tomatoes. It makes you really appreciate the foods we can easily pick through at the grocery store to get the most appealing ones. Any sign of mold gets tossed. This is the hardest of the jobs, but also the most rewarding since it's labor intensive too. I have also had the pleasure of assembling sandwiches in the kitchen too, with wheat squares of bread, some meat like slices of pork meat of some sort and cheese too. Volunteering your time and energy is greatly rewarding and so helpful to those in need. This is a great center that gives back ro the community. At the end of your day, they will brief you on how many bags or boxes of food were boxed that day. It's the only day big the original big 3 OEMs groups can collaborate and work together side by side without any intellectual property issues too.

I placed an order a week before delivery for one and a half face cords. The day of delivery, the…read moreguy called and said he'd be there at 10:30, he got there at 11. When he dumped the load onto the tarps, I thought it looked a bit light. I've been ordering from a place in Waterford for about 10 years, same size order, and it always looked bigger then this order did, but you can't really argue about the size on the tarp. After I loaded up my 3/4 cord rack in the backyard, there was barely anything left. I believe I was definitely shorted by half a cord. I should have had half of the order left after filling the rack. I always get this amount so I can season 3/4 cord in the rack while I burn the rack contents of last year's delivery (moved into the garage) and have 3/4 cord in the garage ready to go for February burning.Now I have the 3/4 cord from last year and 2 small wheelbarrows of wood (about 3 days of burning) on the side. I called and told the guy who answered I believe I was shorted so he could make it right. He took my name and number and said he'd check into it and call me back. No call back. I believe I was shorted on my order of 1.5 cords by .5 cord. I just called them again and Mark called me back saying they will drop off 1/2 cord later this week. I'll update their stars to 4 once they do. UPDATE: After the delivery guy came by and measured my rack ( which holds 3.5' x 7' of wood for 24 sq ft, a cord is 4'x8' or 32 sq ft.) he dropped off a half cord out front. Definitely more than 1/3rd of initial delivery so I am very happy now! Thanks for making it right guys, I do appreciate it!

I had three yards of a topsoil and mulch mix delivered to my home for filling a vegetable garden…read more Prices were competitive. The person that I talked to on the phone to set it up was very knowledgeable about the type of mix that I should use and why. The delivery was on time and dumped exactly where I wanted it on my driveway. I will need another three yards next year and will definitely use Noble's.
