Gardeners needed to help prepare the Calvin Community Garden

Calvin Community Garden first harvest

Help Diggin’ Shoreline prep Calvin Community Garden for Spring Planting Saturday, May 13 9am - Noon

Volunteers are needed to help Diggin’ Shoreline prepare the Calvin Presbyterian Community Garden for gardeners and food bank gardens. This wonderful garden is located on a flat, sunny site with plenty of parking available.

Drop in any time between 9 and Noon on Saturday to lend a hand. Even an hour of your time is a big help!

The morning’s work will include weeding unclaimed plots and food bank plots, weeding paths, laying burlap and covering with chips. School-age children are welcome with parental supervision. 

This is a great community service opportunity for high school students, too. Be sure to dress for the weather - bring sunscreen, and garden gloves. Also bring digging forks, shovels, and hand tools, if you have them.

Plots are still available to rent for the upcoming season. To inquire about a plot, call 206-542-6181 or email.

The garden is located on the corner of Richmond Beach Road (NE 185th) and 3rd Ave NW. The site is completely ADA accessible, and both the METRO 330 and 331 bus lines stop in front of the garden.
