Are you passionate about healthy local food? Do you have a green thumb you would like to use to serve your community? Do you simply like getting stuck with hands-on work?

Join us at McLaughlin Grows Urban Farm, Muskegon's premier Urban Farm now operating at 3 sites in core-city Muskegon. We are looking for reliable, committed volunteers to help as grow local, fresh produce and provide food education in the heart of Muskegon. Whether you can spare a few hours or even a few days a week, we want to hear from you. All experience levels from beginner to horticultural masters welcome!

McLaughlin Grows seeks to:

  • Provide employment, training, and hands-on educational experiences to core city youth.

  • Transform the local food system by providing core city residents and institutions access to nutritious, affordable, organic produce.

  • Build healthy neighborhoods by creating green space, promoting social interaction and fostering a sense of community.
