Each gardener is obligated to volunteer three hours of time for their first plot and one extra hour for each additional plot. Often this time can be earned by attending both or one of our Community Garden Work Days which will occur in April and November. For folks who can't attend Work Days, there will be other opportunities to earn time toward meeting the volunteer time obligation. The Advisory Committee will communicate to gardeners tasks that need to be worked on and will count as time toward a gardener's obligated volunteer time. Unfortunately, time tending to or watering another gardener's plot doesn't count as volunteer time.

 

Below are tasks that can be worked on. These tasks can be worked on from now until the end of the season. There’s no need in advance to let us know which task you plan to work on. If you plan on performing a task, and it’s already been completed when you arrive at the Garden, choose another task to work on. If you work on a task, please email us within a day or two of performing the task with information about the task you worked on and for how long so that our records can be updated. We keep a record of your earned volunteer time, but we encourage each gardener to keep track of their time as well.

Please work on the below tasks before working on any other tasks.

Volunteer tasks:​

Volunteer tasks will commence with our April 2026 Work Day. In late March and early April 2026, we'll inform gardeners of the date, time and specifics of our April Work Day.
