WE are the NEW Forward Garden - We plant, tend, and grow produce at a network of gardens. We donate all of this to local food pantries in need of fresh healthy additions to their shelves. WE have all of the equipment and will provide instructions.
Come and enjoy the out-of-doors with fresh air and watch a miracle of small seeds become fresh wholesome vegetables.
Helping out in a garden with fresh air and lots of sun would actually be a benefit to all. Volunteers need to keep in mind:
- Those volunteers who are showing signs of any physical illness should not volunteer.
- Those who were recently in contact with people showing signs of illness should not volunteer.
- Volunteers should know the exact roles and responsibilities expected by the site and the health and safety policies of the site.
- Each site should have hand washing station, and hand sanitation. Volunteers are encouraged to wash hands when arriving and leaving the garden. Volunteers are to bring their own gloves, dress appropriately and wear sturdy shoes.
- Volunteers should know the exact roles and responsibilities expected by the site. Follow instructions or be sure to ask for directions.
- Observe the 10 person limit and overall, maintain 6-feet of distance from those around you.
