Valuable time well spent as an Urban Food Volunteer

Maybe you are motivated by wanting a fairer society. Or is good nutrition your thing?

Perhaps you just like to get some dirt under your fingernails, sun on your skin and rain in your hair.

Our Urban Food Volunteers are as varied as the fruit and veg we grow.

Like you, we are passionate about gardening, nutrition, cutting waste and making sure everyone gets their fair share.

DIVRS supports a vision of local food systems that are secure, healthy, sustainable and fair.

The Urban Food program puts these ideas into practice. Here’s how we go about it:

• Growing food at home

• Community gardening

• Sharing what we grow

• Urban food production

• No-waste growing cycle

• Big picture approach to sharing knowledge and skills.  

Would you like to be involved in an activity for all ages that educates and inspires? Our two Urban Food projects that run on people power are:

• Darebin Urban Growers

• Darebin Fruit Squad

Jump on board. Get your hands dirty for the sake of making Darebin an even better place to live. We’d love to hear from you!
