From packing fresh vegetables for families in need with our friends at Mountain Roots Food Project to making trail improvements with Crested Butte Conservation Corps, here’s a short list of ways you–and your whole family–can give back this season.
📍CBMBA / Crested Butte Conservation Corps
Next time you see the Crested Butte Conservation Corps out on the trails, thank them for trail! You can even join in on work days. It's an excellent way to spend some time outside improving our backyard and connecting with other community members. Sign up for their newsletter or give them a follow on Facebook for the latest updates and volunteer opportunities!
📍Mountain Roots Food Project
Join the Backyard Harvest Program this season and become an integral part of delivering food to families in need in the Gunnison Valley. Mountain Roots is looking for volunteers to both pack and deliver boxes of fresh vegetables and other ingredients harvested right here in our backyard. Whether you can help out weekly or just once and awhile, you are welcome to be a part of this ongoing effort. Sign up here, or email volunteer@mountainrootsfoodproject.org for more information.
📍Mountain Roots Food Project
Among many of their ongoing efforts here in the Gunnison Valley, Mountain Roots Food Project manages two impressive local farms: Glacier Farm and Community Farm. All those organic veggies aren’t going to pick themselves! Farm days allow volunteers to help out and learn about many aspects of agriculture, from preparing soil to actual harvesting come fall. See all the volunteer opportunities at Mountain Roots Food Project, here.
📍CBMBA / Crested Butte Conservation Corps
If you don't live here in the Gunnison Valley and can't coordinate your annual trip with a volunteer opportunity, that's OK. Consider making a cash donation to our friends at CBMBA, or purchasing some branded swag to show your support while you ride trails in your backyard.
