South Lansing Urban Gardens is a program of South Lansing Community Development Association. Our gardens are an educational tool and a donation based growing opportunity for South Lansing. The produce we grow is donated to local non-profit food pantries, community kitchens, and individuals in South Lansing.
A variety of duties are required for a successful growing season. We are searching for individuals who want to assist with seed starting in our greenhouse, seedling transplants in our hoop, greenhouse, and outside garden space. We want people who want to help maintain the soil in the garden with composting, weeding, and watering schedules. Harvesting and distribution will be a weekly opportunity. Developing new growing areas to incorporate native plants and pollinators in our garden(s). We hope to expand our gardening efforts to support other community gardens in our area.
You do not have to be an experienced gardener, just a love of the outdoors and a willingness to take directions.
