Opportunity Details
Beaverton's Giving Gardens (age 10+) *CCD 2012*
What do you call someone with a golden thumb??
...a Beaverton Giving Gardens volunteer!
Join our group of fun, family-friendly garden volunteers - thumbs of all colors welcome (aka, no gardening experience required!)
If you'd like to work outside, get a little sun, and help families in need by growing organic vegetables, then we would love to have you come out and volunteer with us at the City of Beaverton's Giving Gardens. All the food grown will be donated to Tualatin Valley Gleaners, Sunshine Pantry and St. Matthews Food Pantry.
We will be laying down paths, raking, planting vegetables and flowers, weeding and harvesting. Please bring some gloves and drinking water.
Note: the garden does not have bathroom facilities, but volunteers are able to use the facilities at retail stores located near by. Also, Saturday shifts are located at the Kennedy Community Gardens (corner of 103rd/Kennedy Street, behind Target). The 3-hour shift is from 10am-1pm, but you will be able to leave earlier, if you need to (you will get credit for the hours that you did volunteer).
This is a family-friendly volunteer opportunity, so please feel free to bring the kids along for some great family fun!
