Volunteer

 

Urban Harvest's programs thrive due to the hard work of many talented volunteers who work with our staff and one another. Volunteering is an excellent way to support community gardening, the farmers' market and all our programs. Opportunities include individual projects, team work on volunteer committees, short term and long term positions with varying levels of responsibility and training. Find out more about how you can join our volunteers.
