1) Join the PTA Garden Committee and help out behind the scenes with fundraising, grant writing, general garden maintenance like weeding and mulching, lesson planning, etc. There’s a lot of work that goes into planning, organizing, and managing the garden as well as keeping the infrastructure running smoothly. If you’re good at construction or tool sharpening, starting seedlings or labeling plants, writing press releases and articles, or perhaps a graphic designer… we can put your talents to good use!

2) If you have experience gardening and/or teaching, consider becoming a class Garden Parent during the school year and help support your child’s classroom teacher with garden projects and lessons. Email us below!

3) Sign your family up for a week or two over summer vacation to help us keep the garden watered! We send out a list of specific dates at the end of each school year.

4) Have extra plants, seeds, books or garden tools and supplies cluttering your home or garage? Consider donating items to the School Garden but please always contact us first to find out what’s needed.
