Volunteer With ZEN
Grow food. Build community. Change lives.
Whether you’re planting seeds in the garden, handing out fresh food at our Mobile Market, or lending a hand at a community event, your time and energy create ripples of change that reach far beyond the moment.
At ZEN, we believe everyone has something valuable to give—skills, stories, laughter, compassion. No gardening experience? No problem. We’ll teach you everything you need to know. All you need is a willingness to show up, work alongside others, and help nurture a healthier, stronger community.
When you volunteer, you’re not just filling a shift—you’re fueling a mission, feeding neighbors, and planting hope for the future.
