Garden Maintenance
ORGANIZATION: Jewish Community Alliance
Please visit the new page to apply.
Spring is around the corner! As our garden comes into bloom, we’re looking for volunteers to come by once a week and assist with basic garden upkeep: weeding, watering, and harvesting any goods that can be distributed through our food pantry. This volunteer opportunity is low-commitment, averaging 20-30 minutes a week, and can be a great chance for kids to get involved and help. Email Rebecca at volunteercoordinator@mainejewish.org for full position description.
