Volunteer: Become an orchard stewardWe are seeking 12 individuals who are interested in being trained to care for an heirloom orchard and commit to approximately 4-8 hours/month of volunteer work in an heirloom orchard. The tree fruit of this orchard in combination with an adjacent P-patch contributes more than one ton of fresh produce Orchard Gardens provides to hungry people in the local area. The work in the orchard includes tree pruning, fruit picking, mulching and periodic orchard clean-up. It would be helpful if you were comfortable on a ladder and using hand tools. Also helpful if you can use a wheelbarrow and have some arm and leg strength. Most folks are perfectly comfortable doing orchard work. It doesn't take major muscles, but it is helpful to be comfortable doing manual labor.
