We host monthly Community Garden Days at the 24th Street Elementary School garden from 9am – 1pm. You don’t need any gardening experience to join in- just a love of nature and a willingness to get dirty! Make new friends as you help us plant, weed, water, mulch and more!
We have regularly scheduled farm work days, and many special projects that depend on volunteers.
We are always looking for positive people who love writing and sports who can give their time as statisticians, coaches, referees, or as a beat reporter for our social media pages and newsletters. To work with you volunteers must have a driver’s license, be fingerprinted, TV tests, and have two references.
Interested in logistics? Volunteer at our events or monthly workshops and help them run smoothly.
Enjoy public speaking? Have a story, experience or lesson to share? We would love to hear from you.
Assist with driving, activity planning, snacks, money management, or other tasks necessary to keep the troop running oh-so-smoothly from week to week.
For those not ready to work on the farm, we can always use the help in other ways such as outreach, program support, and fundraising.
If cleanliness and organization are your fortes, this is a chance to help our teachers and staff keep the playgrounds and classrooms tidy.
If you have a green thumb (or want one!), this is a great opportunity to get your hands dirty and help our large, beautiful garden grow. Great for groups!
General volunteer opportunities include helping out with a mailing, being a docent at a community or school event, tell the community about CDI, assist with data entry, provide translation services, create signs, or help out with laundry.
