Growing School Gardens Build - Eastway Elementary

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Inter-Faith Food Shuttle

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 1 person is interested

Helping hands are needed to help us redesign and renovate our Growing School Garden on Saturdays at Eastway Elementary School, 610 N. Alston Ave. Durham, NC 27701. Volunteers will demolish old garden beds, build new raised garden beds, and build a drip irrigation system to better meet the needs of the school.

We have some tasks anyone can help with like building the new beds, but we do need some skilled labor folks with good strong backs, wiling to load wheelbarrows with soil, and use pick-axes to dig a trench for edging.

Sign up online at https://foodshuttle.volunteermatrix.com/. Register as a volunteer to complete your volunteer waiver and emergency contact. Then, you can use the calendar to schedule yourself for this opportunity.
