Rake the Town - VINE Faith in Action - Promoting quality of life and a culture of caring

Rake the Town: November 11-15, 2026

Mark your calendars for VINE’s annual community service project, Rake the Town!

We are looking for over 600 volunteers to rake leaves for around 100 homeowners in Mankato, North Mankato, St. Peter, Lake Crystal, and surrounding areas between November 11-15.

VINE can provide rakes, tarps, and other tools if needed for those who are signed up to help.

Need help?

If you are over 65 or have a documented physical disability, live in Blue Earth or Nicollet counties and need assistance with leaf raking, call Adam at (507) 386-5574.

For those not previously helped, a short intake will be completed. While there is no formal charge for this service, a donation is requested so we can cover our costs and continue to offer this service in the future.
