FeedATL is a weekly program taking place all Summer long, made possible by our partnership with the Food Well Alliance. We will be working with a hand-picked cohort of urban farmers who work hard everyday to bolster Atlanta’s local food ecosystem.

For Part 9, we will head to Tucker to visit our second Grow With The Flow farm site for an evening of good garden vibes. You’ll meet Roger, our partner farmer, and learn about his family’s important role in the urban farm and food infrastructure community of DeKalb County. You’ll also get your hands dirty in the garden and you’ll get to meet like-minded folks in a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere.

For the service part…

This is our second visit to one of Roger’s Grow With The Flow farm sites but the first visit to this particular one. We will assist with all kinds of fun gardening tasks like harvesting summer crops, pulling weeds from the ground, prepping the ground for new crops, and other important TLC for the farm. No experience necessary, but if you have some garden skills we will gladly take them!

Project will kick off at 5pm and go until around 7:30pm.

For the social part…

When we finish working, our group will head around the corner to the Tucker Brewing Company Beer Garden for some well-deserved drinks and bites. Your first round is on us, as a thank you for your efforts!

About the FeedATL Program

Each week, we will be onsite at one of the selected farms on a rotating basis, so we can serve each farmer in a variety of ways throughout the season. You do not need to commit to any more than a single workday, but we hope you do return if you have a good time! You’ll see progress week-to-week, and you’ll get to know some pretty inspiring local farmers!

Mission-Aligned Volunteering That Promises Smiles

Our mission is to cultivate local community connections through social volunteering, and that’s exactly what you can expect when you attend. Every project will feature components of learning, of service, and of having fun while meeting new people.

Many urban farms around Atlanta struggle to keep up with the growing demand for healthy, locally grown foods. This includes a lack of manpower to operate and get work done on the farm. Volunteers can help fill this gap and add capacity to a farm, but managing volunteers is also a time-consuming task. Community Bucket partners with these farmers to deliver volunteers like you and create a memorable experience that will keep you wanting more.
