Feb 22, 2011 Update
[If you want to sign up to our email list for volunteer opportunities please fill in the form below]
Our planning season for the 2011 season is well under way and we’ve started emailing you for ways in which you can get involved. If you aren’t receiving these emails and want to sign up, please fill out the form below.
For Feb/Mar, these will include:
- marketing sessions (dropping flyers in selected neighbourhoods)
- greenhouse fieldtrips to start some of our seedlings (outside the city)
- local seed starting events (in the city)
Limited volunteer positions available for Feb/Mar.
As the gardening season nears (April/May), we’ll be having a few bigger events as we prepare the gardens and get our operations ready for another year of growing. Specific events include:
- construction of a hoop-house
- new garden “ground-breaking” events
- composter construction days
- seeding/planting days
- and more
For May and throughout the summer, we’ll be having regular volunteer hours at each of our gardens. We are looking for energetic volunteers of any age to join us as “Gardeneers” to help with planting, weeding, watering and harvesting. As a Gardeneer, you will have the opportunity to learn from other gardening and local food enthusiasts, get hands-on gardening experience, and have first priority access to our exciting workshops. More details will be posted on how you can get involved.
To get involved or find out more, please contact our volunteer coordinator Madeline at: madeline@yufcsa.com. Hope to see you in the gardens!
