The City Harvest Nutrition Education Department has a number of short and long term volunteer opportunities that you can get involved with! All of our programming is conducted in our Healthy Neighborhoods, which are the South Bronx, Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, Washington Heights-Inwood, and the North Shore of Staten Island. For more information on our Healthy Neighborhoods click here<http://www.cityharvest.org/programs/healthy-neighborhoods/>. Our programs are also conducted mostly Monday- Fridays between the hours of 11AM-8PM. Volunteer opportunities include: * Cooking Demonstrations- City Harvest conducts cooking demonstrations at our Mobile Markets<http://www.cityharvest.org/programs/healthy-neighborhoods/mobile-market/> and various retailers such as supermarkets, bodegas, and Farmers Markets. The demonstrations provide healthy, delicious, and affordable recipes and samples for community members made with produce that is locally available. * Shopping Matters Workshops- Hour long shopping tours where volunteers lead a group of 15 participants through the aisles of their community supermarket and explain affordable and healthy shopping. * Cooking Matters Courses- 6-week cooking and nutrition education courses designed by Share Our Strength. Courses are available for adults, caregivers and children, children alone, teens, and pregnant teens. * City Harvest Branded Courses- An 8-week cooking and nutrition education program that teaches people the health benefits and value of produce, along with how to purchase, store and prepare it.
