About the Event:
Interested in increasing land access and promoting community agriculture in Nashville? Come volunteer with The Nashville Food Project’s McGruder Community Garden!
Birthed through the vision of Rev. and Margaret Beach, The McGruder Community Garden brings neighbors of North Nashville together to join together and grow cultivate food, flowers, and herbs for their community. Help us increase access to land, growing resources, and a vibrant garden community for the North Nashville community by volunteering at one of our workdays!
What to Expect from the Opportunity:
Volunteers at McGruder get their hands dirty (literally) alongside staff to support the community that grows in our space. Whether broad forking unbroken ground to develop new garden plots and perennial beds, assembling benches and compost bins, or weeding the beds of our dedicated and busy gardeners, you can be certain to get your body moving in a gorgeous fresh air setting while supporting the work of increasing land access for folks wanting to grow their own food!
Registration:
We use a third-party website for our shift sign ups. After expressing interest, our Volunteer Engagement Manager will send you a link to sign up for your desired shift. At this point, we will share more information about the workday, including details on what to wear/bring and directions to the garden.
