Marra Farm Giving Gardener

Do you want to end hunger in your community?

Roll up your sleeves with us at our Giving Garden at Marra Farm! You’ll help build soil, prepare vegetable beds, plant vegetable starts and seeds, weed by hand, compost, water, harvest, wash produce, and distribute produce to the local food bank and other locations. Many of our volunteers start with limited or no gardening knowledge and learn as they go, so we welcome you with whatever level of gardening skills and knowledge you bring. Families welcome!

Located in the Duwamish River Valley, Marra Farm comprises 8.7 acres of preserved farmland in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood – home to both ethnically diverse immigrant communities and a high concentration of commercial industry. Solid Ground’s Community Food Education (CFE) program, one of many community partners who steward the land, operates a Giving Garden that educates neighbors and volunteers on sustainable farming while growing food for the community.

BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color), and people with the lived experience of food insecurity are strongly encouraged to volunteer.
