HARVESTING VOLUNTEERS


Kids of all ages, singles and families, schools, church groups, youth clubs
and corporate volunteers can help us plant, weed and harvest at
the Incredible Edible Park in Irvine, every week.

• Tuesdays and Fridays from 9-11, groups of up to 40.
• Thursdays from 3:15-4:30, groups of up to 15.
• Saturdays and Sundays, twice a month, from 9-11, groups of up to 20.

Individuals are welcome to join in with scheduled groups.

Depending on the season, you’ll be planting seeds or smaller plants, picking weeds, or harvesting broccoli, carrots, onions, strawberries, cabbage, chili peppers, green beans, watermelons and pumpkins. Occasionally, we harvest lemons and oranges from the citrus groves of the Centennial Museum in Santa Ana.

Please call our Volunteer Office to schedule your group or sign up individually at 949 653-2900. Sorry, we can not schedule through email.

Please note that due to its popularity, the group schedule for Saturdays and Sundays fills up several months in advance. We do take reservations up to six months into the future. 

UPDATE:
 All Saturdays and Sundays  dates have been completely
reserved for groups through October 2012, however we do have
Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday dates still available starting in June.
