Why volunteer with us?

The Emerson Avenue Community Garden exists purely due to the passion, energy, commitment, creativity and perseverance of our wide volunteer base! From random neighbors who show up for our monthly community volunteer days, to people who take leadership positions to fulfill ongoing organizational roles, volunteers are our lifeblood.

We're creating a healthy, vibrant neighborhood

Community gardens are a vital cog in the machinery of healthy and vibrant neighborhoods. They provide a tangible and hopeful sign of renewal, and of the potential of growth given the right mix of intention, energy and nurturing.
