Grow Nashua has built and manages 7 community gardens for families to grow fresh produce and connect with their neighbors. We support about 160 garden plots spread over all these sites.
Often times things break at the site or we need to replace hoses, patch fencing, or replace a board on a raised bed.
If you are handy with fixing miscellaneous things, we'd love a hand on occasion.
Responsibilities:
Working with wood.
Working with garden irrigation things like hoses, spigots, and sprayers.
Benefit:
Your help will create a welcoming environment for the families that garden with us and rely on the space for access to nutritious fresh fruits and veggies.
Skills:
Working with miscellaneous hand tools.
Working independently and figuring out solutions that will solve an issue.
Duration:
Usually 1-2 hrs each time a need arises.
Time Frame:
Most of the needs/issues that arise throughout the gardening season you will be able to do at your leisure. On occasion something will be time sensitive, but the majority of the time you can go any day any time.
