Description:

The UW Farm needs extra human power to get through harvest time during COVID without a lot of food going to waste. Below are the times and locations that you can volunteer. It would be great for the Farm to get a regular (weekly) commitment where possible. Each time you volunteer, you’ll walk away with a bag of delicious fresh produce and beautiful flowers! If you are available, contact Perry Acworth at theuwfarm@gmail.com

Mondays: 8-11 am @ Mercer Court, 11:30 am-2:30 pm @ Center for Urban Horticulture

Tuesdays: 8 am-2:30 pm @ Center for Urban Horticulture

Thursdays: 8-11 am @ Mercer Court, 11:30 am-2:30 pm @ McMahon Hall
