We welcome volunteers at Cardiff Salad Garden. Volunteering at one of our gardens is a great way to meet people, and join in with growing activities such as planting, picking, weeding and watering salad.
Volunteering offers you the chance to get involved in a small group setting with friendly people who can help you build your confidence, make friends, practice language skills and provide a calm setting to just have some time away from the stresses of everyday life.
Gardening Sessions
We run volunteer sessions at two gardens:
Our volunteering sessions are facilitated by Cardiff Salad Garden session staff through funding from WCVA Volunteering Wales and National Lottery.
Sessions are welcoming, inclusive, fun and usually involve lots of cake and biscuits – we have a light lunch at the end of each session.
Sessions are currently running:
- Tuesdays and Fridays 10am -12.30pm at Bute Park Salad Garden
- Wednesdays and Fridays 11am – 1pm at Riverside Community Garden.
Email us (cardiffsalad@gmail.com) or phone Sophie (07715388771) to book your place. Once you have had an induction you can drop into sessions as and when you would like.
Other types of volunteering
We also often need Volunteer Cyclists to assist with salad delivery and Digital Volunteers to assist with a range of admin tasks if you are interested in this please get in contact.
