Garden Volunteer
The purpose of the GROW gardens is to share knowledge and increase gardening skills within our community.
Our hugelkultur garden is a great space for growing herbs and plants to attract pollinators.

Join us as we prepare for another great season of learning together at the GROW food forest park! GROW’s main demonstration garden is located downhill from the natural playground at our project site, within Two Rivers Park. It's comprised of two terraced sections (one a tradition raised bed style, the other a "hugelkultur" style) and some tilled area for row crop planting. Its design invites visitors to explore and consider creative ideas for gardening in urban spaces, especially ones on a steep slope.
We use the garden for a number of initiatives including:
homeschool programing
public school field trip education
public demonstration and education efforts
If you have an interest in organic gardening please consider joining this team! We are seeking both skilled laborers, such as Master Gardeners, and unskilled laborers.
Tasks will vary and may include: planting spring veggies and flowers, bed preparation, hardscape work, light construction (compost bins and plant trellises), spreading wood mulch on pathways, protecting newly planted trees, planting additional trees and shrubs, and more! There's always something new to learn when you volunteer at GROW!
Please fill out this form and someone from our team will reach out to you promptly.
