The OzHarvest Market at Waterloo opened in July 2020 and is OzHarvest’s only direct-to-community food relief program run by volunteers.

Volunteer Role:

Volunteers will help set up the OzHarvest stall at the market, sort out rescued food, and assist customers in shopping in a supportive and judgement-free environment. The volunteers will be on-site at the market from 8 am until 3 pm. This volunteering is an eye-opener, seeing you help people who are in need firsthand, with times that are more challenging right now.

Volunteers at the market will help replenish the shelves, serve the market's 400+ daily customers alongside OzHarvest staff and other volunteers, and assist with packing down at the end of the day.

It’s recommended to:
• Wear closed-in, flat shoes (e.g., joggers).
• Tie back your hair (if applicable).
• Wear comfortable, practical clothing.
• Bring a water bottle.

At the start of the day, the market manager will explain how the market operates and provide directions to each volunteer.

Parking is available onsite.
