On Tuesdays and Thursdays in the spring, volunteers work with farm staff in the greenhouse to get our seeding, transpotting, watering, and other greenhouse tasks accomplished. Volunteers can come any days they are available-- no minimum commitment, any help is appreciated! The plants we grow are sold at a plant sale, helping to fund our community farm, and become the vegetables we sell and donate throughout the community. Your help contributes to building our local food system!
Volunteers also don't have to come for the whole time-- we just ask that you come for at least 2 hours, so we can get you set up and have it worth your time.
