JOIN CITY BLOSSOMS FOR A GARDEN WORKDAY!

Read our Volunteer Waiver then complete the form below to sign up for this event. For groups larger than 5 people, email cara@cityblossoms.org to check availability. Space is limited.

Join City Blossoms in the Cardozo garden! This workday will include a variety of garden maintenance activities such as cleaning and organizing the greenhouse, weeding, spreading mulch, and other tasks.

If you are bringing your children to volunteer or participate with you, there is a field to list their names and sign on their behalf. If you are a youth volunteer or participant under 18 years of age, you can fill out the form as usual and have your parent/guardian review and sign at the end. Email cara@cityblossoms.org with any questions.

About the space: Cardozo is home to half our year round, garden-based Youth Entrepreneurship Cooperative program. At the core of the program is a youth-led business called, Mighty Greens. Through this business, Youth Staff (students participants from Cardozo) learn to combine their interests of environmental and food justice work with micro-enterprise and job readiness skills development. Throughout the year, participants at Cardozo maintain their garden space and greenhouse, create added-value products using their garden’s harvest, lead workshops, and sell/donate their products and produce back to the local communities.
