Do you want to help our collective?
Learn and grow with us! No previous experience necessary! Looking for:
- Weeders
- Planters
- Meal makers
- Delivery drivers
- Hunters/fishers
- And more!
We appreciate people from all nations, regardless of status. We ask that if you are non-Indigenous, you take a listening, learning, and supportive role rather than a leadership one.
We are also looking for land to be used for growing, even small patches, or crops that can be gleaned.
Check the calendar below for more updated dates and times for all events.
Harvest care currently happens every Wednesday from 6-8 pm and Saturday from 10-12 pm.
