    Description

    Community Garden Volunteer (Houston, TX)

    Friends of Westchase is seeking volunteers to help care for and grow our community garden at Paul Revere Middle School, an initiative that addresses food insecurity while building connection among students, families, and neighbors in the Westchase area.

    The garden provides fresh, nutritious produce that is shared with families who have children at Paul Revere Middle School and with nearby Westchase residents. More than a garden, this space is a place of learning, dignity, and community care.

    Garden volunteers help with:

    • Planting, weeding, watering, and harvesting seasonal crops
    • Maintaining garden beds and pathways
    • Preparing produce for distribution to families
    • Supporting a welcoming, peaceful space for students and neighbors

    No gardening experience is required—training and guidance are provided. Volunteers of all skill levels are welcome, whether you enjoy getting your hands dirty or simply want to serve alongside others in a meaningful, tangible way.

    This is a great opportunity for individuals, families, small groups, and corporate or faith-based teams.

    Location: Paul Revere Middle School, Westchase (Houston, TX)

    Schedule: Flexible weekday and occasional weekend opportunities

    Impact: Supports food security for local families

    Background Check: Required for school-based volunteers
