BECOME A VOLUNTEER
Zero Mile Gardens CIC is a community-based organisation, driven by the work of its volunteers.
Volunteer to tend the Alibi garden.
No prior gardening skills are required: our volunteer sessions will allow you to learn new skills in a friendly environment through practice: from seed-sowing and propagation to harvesting and composting.
Our volunteer gardening sessions are at the Alibi Garden (EX41EJ): Thursday 9.00 – 11.00 am
Support Our Efforts Beyond the Garden
You can also volunteer to help running our community events and stalls, conduct small repairs and maintenance in the garden, or assist us with social media and marketing.
