Volunteer Day & Open House
November 18, 2026 10:00 pm
Volunteer Day & Open House at REAP Climate Center
Alameda has a good one for anyone who likes getting their hands dirty with friendly people around. REAP Climate Center opens its campus on Wednesday, November 18, from 2 pm to 5 pm for volunteer time, then rolls into a Fireside Potluck after the work wraps up.
The setting is casual and earthy, tucked over on Tynan Avenue with that hands on community garden feel. Expect people moving around the site watering, planting, building compost, helping with animals, or pitching in on light construction projects. The tasks can change week to week, so it is worth checking the volunteer info before you go.
The people to watch here are the gardeners, builders, compost makers, animal helpers, and neighbors who keep the place running. Everyone has a role, whether you know your way around tools or you are just showing up for the first time and ready to learn.
This is a good fit if you want a low pressure way to meet Alameda folks, spend time outside, and do something useful before dinner. All ages are welcome, but everyone needs to sign the online waiver before coming to campus.
Where: REAP Climate Center, 2133 Tynan Ave, Alameda
When: Wednesday, November 18, 2 pm to 5 pm, with potluck after
