Volunteer
Volunteers make everything we do possible! Most projects involve working outdoors and may require physical labor. Please wear closed toe-shoes, bring water and wear sunscreen. We will help and guide you with the tasks. You don't need to have any gardening experience to volunteer.
Students looking for volunteer opportunities will enjoy the chance to get outside and learn new skills while meeting others in the community. We can provide documentation of volunteer hours if needed. Please bring any forms that need to be completed, such as MSD STEM forms.
​
Urban Farm volunteer opportunities open in April 2025. We'll announce when the sign up is available in the newsletter and on social media.
​
Youths aged 15 and above may volunteer on their own. Children aged 14 and younger may volunteer with a parent or caregiver. All volunteers are required to fill out a waiver in advance of your volunteer shift.

Volunteer Groups - 2025
Grow It Green welcomes corporate and community groups at The Urban Farm and the Early Street Community Garden. Volunteer days spent with us are a great way to promote team-building while completing critical tasks to serve the community and making all of the work we do possible!
Together we can create a project for your group or work on one of the many Grow It Green has already planned!
Contact us at info@growitgreenmorristown.org to talk about opportunities, projects and partnerships. We are open to ways to work together to build thriving, equitable food systems that respect the community and environment.
Testimonial:
"I would just like to extend my gratitude to your non-profit for hosting us and allowing us to volunteer at the Early Street Community garden. Jenna was amazing, very thorough, and the group greatly benefited from her expertise! We appreciate your work in the community and vividly saw the impact! Thank you for your stellar communication throughout the whole process, I felt your support and had no unanswered questions. I look forward to volunteering with your non-profit in the future. Please also let us know when there's a need for volunteers, and we will definitely come out to volunteer again!"​​​​​
