Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (just behind Global Scholars Hall).

Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have raised beds and other planting areas that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, Eugene Food Not Bombs, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds/transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on.

Note that at times, we have to cancel/reschedule work parties due to unpredictable circumstances, and we may be unable to update this recurring weekly posting. See the above channels for the most up-to-date information. Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquiries.
