Volunteers at the heart of our mission

This April, we celebrate Volunteer Appreciation Month, a time to recognize the dedication of our extraordinary volunteers who bring our mission to life each season. We give thanks for their remarkable efforts that nurture our neighbors and cultivate our land. We cherish this time of year when we reconnect with our community, embarking on the communal ritual of preparing and planting garden beds across the western suburbs.

We invite you to enjoy this video montage, created by Steve Jordan of G. Steve Jordan Films, to honor the impactful contributions of our volunteer community last season. Our gratitude extends to every volunteer who has made a palpable impact within their communities. 

Would you like to be part of this year’s vibrant team? Opportunities abound, whether you prefer to work in the gardens or beyond. Find your opportunity on our signupgenius page – and stay tuned, as we will continually introduce new openings throughout the spring!

Hand in hand, we are cultivating a future where hunger is but a memory.
