The position is shared with another coordinator and would involve training and coordinating glean managers, taking calls from farmers alerting Haywood Gleaners that produce is available, checking out proposed glean locations, scheduling gleans and arranging boxes to be delivered to the field. 

Plenty of training is available, and the co-glean coordinator would work only during gleaning season, which runs from August through November. In addition, the responsibilities could be split between multiple people. 

Haywood Gleaners is a volunteer group that picks produce left in the field after harvest is complete, delivering this food that would otherwise rot on the ground to a variety of recipients, including food pantries and nursing homes.
