VOLUNTEER – CREATION CARE

Volunteering with Creation Care is a commitment to nurturing and supporting the health of our Learning Gardens, Native Plant Nursery, Food Forest, and other green spaces. We invite you to explore volunteer opportunities that focus on caring for our plants, from watering and weeding to harvesting and general garden maintenance. This work directly supports our programs and the broader community, and it’s a meaningful way to connect with the land. While certain tasks such as watering need to be completed within a general “window” of time in the morning, volunteers are able to create a schedule that works best for them. Tasks are designed to be simple and manageable, leaving plenty of time to slow down, learn, and enjoy being in the garden. Volunteers may choose to work independently for a quiet, reflective experience, or they are welcome to bring family members or friends to volunteer alongside them. *There are a limited number of plant care volunteer slots. Please contact Ash, ash@tikkunfarm.com, directly to check for availability.*
