Volunteer day at Saul – Weed summer crops

May 28, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Help us weed our garlic and other summer season crops!

THIS VOLUNTEER SHIFT IS FOR NON MEMBERS ONLY.

Help us weed our garlic and other summer season crops! Look for Akiva or Ally when you get to the farm. If you are a Weavers Way member or a CSA shareholder please sign up for shifts in the member center to get credit for your hours.

How to get here: On google maps search “Henry Got Crops.” The address is 7095 Henry Ave. When you pull into the farm there is parking across from the white farm market building and next to the blue barn. Parking maps are next to the white farm market building.

What to expect: You will be working with Akiva (he/him), Ally (she/her) or Briggitte (she/they), the farmers at Saul. Field work generally involves kneeling, squatting, or bending over for extended periods of time and being exposed to the elements and the outdoors, i.e. sun, rain, bugs, mud, etc. We encourage taking breaks, drinking lots of water, and doing only what feels right for your body! There is drinking water available and a porta potty a short walk from the fields. We are out there rain or shine, but not in unsafe conditions – you’ll receive an email if we cancel the volunteer day due to anticipated inclement weather.
