Supervisor / garden buddy participants wanted

City garden Food for Good is a social market garden in Park Transwijk (South West). Local residents, other volunteers and people who need support work together on the production of (organic) vegetables, fruit, flowers and herbs.

A skilled horticulturist is present who divides the work, explains and supervises. In addition, there is a counselor who supports people who work in the garden with a guidance question. The garden buddies we are looking for are people who enjoy working in the garden with the participants and offering them the support they need. A garden buddy maintains close contact with the horticulturist and the counselor and can then work independently with a small group (1 to 5) people. In addition to guiding and keeping an overview, the work consists of gardening: sowing, planting, harvesting, weeding, preparing and cleaning up the seedbed, composting, packaging vegetables, etc. You enjoy guiding people, are communicative and like working outside. In short, do you like to sit with your hands in the earth but do not lose sight of people, then we are looking for you!

City Garden Food for Good is a location of the Utrecht Natural Foundation.
