Urban agriculture and community gardens are popping up all over Princess and Columbia Street. Parks, schoolyards, and personal properties are being decorated with seed and soil, creating a self-sustaining environment that spans beyond what’s trendy. Born from both the challenge of limited space and a spirited creativity, our urban/community garden projects have grown beyond the traditional plot of land and become horticultural marvels. This is exciting and we hope that it will inspire you and future generations to think outside of the box when it comes to food production. As a member of Workaway, you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself and work directly with a large community. We offer an exceptional opportunity to meet a diverse and large group of individuals who are seeking to make positive changes in our neighborhood.
Ajuda
At our collective we have made an intentional decision to pursue goals that foster a sense of community. It's our desire to create an abundance of food by supporting and encouraging the establishment of gardens on unused land and space while increasing diversity. Indeed, our intentions have evolved from living in our likeminded neighborhood. We hope to accomplish big things in concert with our neighbors creating a new aesthetic paradigm, as well as better physical and mental health.
The collective networks in our community are interested in raising their sustainability related ambition, sharing best practices, and offering mutual support to one another. Our collective effort fosters peer-to-peer exchange and learning to accelerate and scale up the impact and stewardship of the self reliant methodology practiced by our community. As a member of Workaway, you will contribute to the maintenance and production of food for our Pay What You Can Food Stand. Additionally, you will assist in community gardens and local watershed restoration projects.
We are open and welcoming of diverse skills and appreciate Workawayers who have creative ideas, a desire to learn and share, and bring unique projects to the table. We can always use help with animal care for our 4 sweet chickens, carpentry, gardening, and community education initiatives. Some examples of previous projects initiated and assisted by work exchanges include painting rooms in the house, building garden beds, building a plant stand for by donation seedlings, spearheading food re-distribution of food saved from local grocery stores.Idiomas
