Opportunity Details

The Plant Exchange (www.theplantexchange.org) encourages reuse, recycling and organic living. This community-wide free event is where gardeners, landscapers, urban farmers, and beginners come to exchange plants, equipment and information about ways to make our urban environment more sustainable, aesthetic, and healthy.

Help us set up the day before our semi-annual Plant Exchange from 4 p.m. - 7 p.m. Volunteers will help:
set up tables
move plants onto tables
assemble signage
label plant donations
prune plants
install temporary fencing
cone off parking areas and
much more!

The time goes quickly and is a lot of fun. Bring a friend and make new ones! All volunteers are invited to a special volunteer appreciation party one week after the exchange event.

To register, email connect@theplantexchange.com or call (510) 866-8482.
