Compost Day at Nome Park Community Garden

Get Connected Icon Happens On Apr 10, 2026
Get Connected Icon 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Description

Help us share one of the garden’s most valuable resources—compost.

This workday focuses on evenly distributing finished compost across garden plots. Compost improves soil health, increases water retention, and supports our regenerative gardening practices throughout the season.

What we’ll do:

  • Move finished compost from the compost area

  • Distribute compost evenly to garden plots

  • Support soil building across the entire garden

This is hands-on, team-based work that makes a big difference for every gardener at Nome Park. No prior experience is needed—tools and guidance will be provided.

What to bring: work gloves, water, closed-toe shoes
Good to know: moderate lifting, shoveling, and wheelbarrow use
Service hours: counts toward monthly community service requirements

There are no restroom facilities or drinking water at this site.
