There are many ways you can contribute your time and skills to the garden-- you don't need to know anything about gardening. Whether you have gardening experience--or would like to learn-- we're happy to have you pitch in. All the work needed to keep the garden open and beautiful--planning, planting, maintenance and administration--is done by members and volunteers.
Volunteers are needed to:
assist with maintaining plants and plots,
sweep, clean the tables, chairs and benches, pick up trash
help with special projects
maintain and repair paths
weed, fertilize, mulch and rake
paint
shovel snow
turn compost
water the garden
Volunteering is a great way to meet new friends, get some exercise, and keep your neighborhood green. All you need is to contribute a few hours of your time.
Is digging in the dirt not your thing, but you still want to help out? We also need help with non-gardening tasks including:
assistance at events
fundraising
grant writing
bookkeeping
To find out how and when you can help, check the 6BC Calendar for scheduled Work Days or contact us and just mention your interest in volunteering.
