THIS IS FOR VOLUNTEER SIGN-UPS. TICKETS TO THE EVENT ARE LINKED BELOW!

Join us in celebration of Earth Day at Leaven Community Center on April 20, 2024! Portland Fruit Tree Project and the many nonprofit organizations that call the Leaven Community Center home is hosting a street festival, spring plant sale, and fundraiser for climate justice and community resilience. Tickets are available now! 

To make this event run smoothly, we need your help! Please sign up if you can help us by volunteering for a shift or two. Click each shift to find out a brief description of what it entails!

Your support allows us to continue our mission to increase equitable access to healthful food and strengthen communities by empowering neighbors to share in the harvest and care of city-grown produce. If you aren't able to volunteer or attend the event, please share it with others! 

We appreciate your time and service to help us with this event! Each registered volunteer will receive one free veggie plant start, 1/2 off all plant purchases, 1 free drink, and snacks.
