Volunteer
We love all of our volunteers, and would love to see you join us! There are many ways you can volunteer–from picking fruit, helping in a garden, to sitting on one of our committees. To learn more about these opportunities and the other fun things going on, sign up for our weekly newsletter!
Email info@gulb.org with questions about volunteering.
FruitShare
FruitShare volunteering opportunities will be updated and added to frequently, so be sure to check back at the link below regularly. Volunteers take home up to 1/3 of the fruit that is harvested, so it is a great way to get access to fresh, locally grown fruit - including cherries, apricots, plums, peaches, grapes, apples, pears, & more!
Community Farm
Help our farm staff maintain our beautiful community farm! Over the course of the season, tasks will include weeding, watering, harvesting, & other general farm maintenance. Each session will be overseen by GULB's experienced farm staff. Bring any snacks and water you may want, and come ready to get your hands dirty! Hats and sunscreen are highly recommended.
Senior Markets
GULB partners with SLCo’s Aging and Adult Services, USU Extension, and Salt Lake County Jail’s Horticulture Program to host Free Farm Stands for seniors at local senior centers. Market volunteers assist our staff in setting up the market booth, distributing produce to market participants, and taking down the booth at the end of the market.
Back-Farms
Back-Farms connects volunteers who are interested in learning about vegetable gardening with senior citizens to build, cultivate, and maintain organic gardens in their back yards at no cost to the senior. Volunteers are needed to help with planting and garden maintenance, including weeding, trellising, watering, harvesting, and more, throughout the season.
