About

Texas Farmers Market helps Keep Austin Fed. That's why our volunteers pickup surplus food from Mueller Farmers Market every Sunday and from Cedar Park Farmers Market on Saturdays. We need continued help.

I'll schedule a phone conference to get you on board as an official KAF volunteer, which includes history, standard operating procedures, and instructions how how to earn a food handlers license.

Volunteers use their own vehicle and donate their time to make sure surplus food gets to charitable organizations that help people in need and stays out of the landfill. Keep Austin Fed provides training, coordination, and support, such as equipment and maps, to make sure the food gets delivered safely.

Volunteers will arrive at the farmers market at about 12:30 p.m., gather surplus food from participating vendors, then transport the food to nearby food pantries. If you're interested, please register and a Keep Austin Fed coordinator will contact you. If you can questions, please e-mail keepaustinfed@gmail.com, visit http://www.keepaustinfed.org/, or call the KAF Hotline at 512-831-3654.

Hi Joseph - I think the plan was for you to make me a Organizer of this event so I could e-mail the entire people list looking for volunteers for later this week, right?

Correct, you are it. Let me know when you're done and I'll switch it back to me. Don't forget to include a link to your event to make it easier for people to sign up. Thanks!

I live in North Austin and I'm happy to help out in the Cedar Park area.
