    Description

    The Fit and Food Connection is a non-profit serving people in Northern St. Louis. We provide free food assistance to low-income families and empower people to get healthy through free fitness classes and nutrition education.

    We need volunteers to assist with weeding, watering, and harvesting at our community garden, Project Sunflower, located at 4846 St. Louis Ave.

    Task: Maintenance of our community garden through tasks such as weeding, watering, and harvesting produce.

    Time: Various times throughout the week. Please check the link included below for each opportunity. Schedule is as follows: Tuesdays 4 PM start, Fridays 1:30 PM start, and Saturday's 8 AM start -- duration is approximately 1-2 hours but stay as long as works for you! Please note, you must sign up for an opportunity if you plan on attending. We are not always at the garden at these times if there are no volunteers signed up!

    Location: Project Sunflower Organic Garden, 4846 St. Louis Ave 63115.

    No experience necessary, just come ready and willing to get a little muddy! We have supplies such as gloves, tools, hoses, wheelbarrows, etc. Don't feel as though you need to bring anything unless you want to!
