About this Opportunity

Do you want to end hunger in your community?

Imagine a city wherepeople have equal access to healthy and culturally appropriate food. The Community Food Education (CFE)at Solid Ground fosters community connections through gardening education, sustainable food production, environmental stewardship, and raising awareness about good nutrition and food justice. We also fight hunger by providing low-income individuals with seeds and materials, and supporting backyard gardeners in donating fruits and vegetables grown in King County.

If you share our vision, join us on the Marra Farm Giving Garden in Seattle's South Park neighborhood! We're looking for volunteers to help prepare vegetable beds, plant vegetable starts and seeds, weed by hand, compost, water, harvest, wash produce, and distribute produce to the community food bank and other locations. Many of our volunteers start with limited or no gardening knowledge and learn as they go, so we welcome you with whatever level of gardening skills and knowledge you bring. Families welcome!
