Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers wanted and a green thumb is not needed!

Edible Evanston and its associated projects can use your help.

A waiver will be required to participate. You can sign it on-site, but if you are under 18 years old a parent or guardian must sign. The release is available here. And you may print it and bring a copy with you. Registration is not required, but we encourage you to sign up to help us plan!
If you have questions, email our volunteer coordinator.

Look for additional activities on most workdays—educational presentations, sharing of food, stories, song. Details on work-and-learn days here.

Watch this space for details on all our other opportunities, dates and requirements or contact us.
