DONATIONS & VOLUNTEER

RECESS VISITS HAVE RETURNED! The garden is open for student visits during recess on Wednesday through November 18th. We need volunteers to help make these visits possible! Our students truly enjoy being able to spend time in the garden and it is very special to see them experience the many different joys this space has to offer.  Shifts are available from 10:45a-12:15p, and 12:15p-1:45p each Wednesday. If you are interested in volunteering to help make these visits possible, please sign up here: Fall 2026 Recess Visits 

Please note you must be an approved school district volunteer for recess visits. If you need to complete the volunteer clearance application, more information can be found here: https://www.abingtonsd.org/page/volunteers
