Volunteer Gardeners Sought

Jordan Jordan October 16, 2009 Comments are off

This one came over the wire from Sustainable Wallingford, we thought we’d help throw a wider net:

Last year, in a modest greenhouse near Gasworks Park, a hearty crew of Wallingford volunteers managed to grow thousands of organic veggie starts destined for several Seattle Community Gardens (read all about it). The resulting produce was ultimately delivered to food banks and we were proud to be part of the chain that helped feed our neighbors. We’d like to resume greenhouse production early next year, but we’ll need some new volunteers to fill out our cadre of greenthumbers.

What’s involved?

  • committing to one approximate two hour shift once a week to
  • plant seeds, transplant germinated seeds and watering.
  • a brief organizational meeting about once every 2 to 3 weeks.
  • a January to May/June commitment.

It was a heartwarming, collaborative experience and we want to do it even better next year!
