Getting Involved

Interested in volunteering? There are many ways to get involved at Wholefoods.

You can volunteer in any area of Wholefoods that you want. Whether it be in the café making coffee, making muffins in the morning, or helping organise events and functions, there's a job for you.

Getting started

All you have to do before starting is attend a 1 hour training session. Although training is mostly on-the-job, this session is an introduction to how Wholefoods works as well as some of the things you might do during a shift in the kitchen or café. To find out the date of the next training session, see the blackboards near the yellow doors in the Wholefoods space, check the main page of the website, or email volunteer.wholefoods@gmail.com

Once you're trained...

Most volunteers put themselves down on the kitchen or café roster for 1-2 hours each week; that means they turn up at that time every week during semester.

Sometimes students have unpredictable schedules and prefer to just pop-in whenever they can. That's cool too.

There's also the grocery which needs volunteers to serve customer and refill stock. If catering and functions is your thing, attend a regular training session, but make sure to contact wholefoods@adm.monash.edu if you'd like to be on her 'functions vollies email list'.
