Current Volunteering Opportunities
Gardening - Organic gardeners aspiring for a green thumb wanted!
We are looking for garden volunteers to supplement our existing garden team. Having experience and knowledge of gardening is favourable, but not compulsory. Having team spirit, lots of enthusiasm and being reliable are!
Garden tasks are:
Weeding, watering, mulching, propagation, composting, worm farming, harvesting, general site maintenance and landscaping (which may include digging, raking, tidying, etc).
You will be part of a dedicated team of amazing volunteers and will have the opportunity to deepen your knowledge on organic gardening techniques, and maintain a garden that has been teaching children and the community about growing food for over a decade. Plus you get to take home fresh, organic produce regularly, yum!
Gardeners are expected to:
- Be community-minded team-players;
- Have an interest in native vegetation/bush tucker growing as well as 'regular' vegetables;
- Participate on Fridays from 10 am - 3 pm, once a week, once a fortnight or once a month;
- Show a commitment to attending the group, the EcoCentre and its values;
- Undertake a safety induction
Interested? Fill in your details here and we'll be in touch! Please note volunteer inductions are run once a month, based on interest.
Compost turner!
We are after a new volunteer (or two) who is interested in helping turn our compost bays.
Bays need turning Monday or Tuesdays and we like to have a regular volunteer, as well as someone who is available to be a back up turner, in case.
Waterers needed!
Our garden beds are often thirsty!
We're after volunteers who are able to water once (or twice) for an hour during the week, to help keep our plants and veggies hydrated. You will be given a run down of the watering regime, including the hot house and pots.
Westgate Park Volunteers
The Friends of Westgate Park welcome new volunteers (individuals, families and teams) to help them realise their vision and join a very enthusiastic core of volunteers. There is much work still to be done!
FOWP work regularly on Mondays and Tuesdays from 8:30am to 3pm, and on the 3rd Sunday of the month from 9am to 4pm. Contact Tony on 0400 770 254 to discuss how you can help, and then they can arrange to meet, introduce you to the Park and take you to the current work site.
