VOLUNTEER POSITIONS
|
Step up your involvement in the garden. Become a day leader, or maybe a plant parent. Use your skills to help out with a few of the available positions on
the garden crew. We would love to hear from you. |
PLANTING TEAM MEMBER |
The planting team is the guiding the entire cycle of the garden from bed planning, to soil management, plant care, writing the weekly chores, crop news, and working with plant parents and crop teams. If you have a good understanding of gardening we would love to have you on our team.
|
DAY LEADERS |
Each day crew needs a dedicated day leader to mentor new gardeners and guide their crew. We like to have more than one day leader per crew so that every day has back up when gardeners are away.
|
POWER TOOL MANAGER |
Make sure our gas power tools such as tillers, weed wackers and mowers are maintained by doing simple repairs, maintenance, and coordinating larger repairs by professionals. For more information contact gardeninfo@poshsquash.org
|
PLANT PARENTS NEEDED
Being a plant parent will improve your garden knowledge and you will get the opportunity to shepherd an annual crop from seedling to harvest or care for one of our perennial crops throughout the growing season. Experience is welcome but not always necessary.

McLEOD CLEARING TOOL
|
This is BY FAR the best tool for digging out paths or other hard-soil areas. They are made by more than one company but are probably almost identical as they are a fire-fighting tool so likely must be pretty standard-issue.

HEAVY WIDE BLADE HOE
|
The blade width is about 8" and is very heavy, that is the crucial factor (heavy tools actually make work easier, as the weight does the work as gravity helps) You can purchase it at any of these two link.

Works for compost & wood chip shoveling so much better than the long-handled one we have. Can be purchased elsewhere.
