Volunteer Day & Open House

A practical Sunday at REAP Climate Center in Alameda

REAP Climate Center opens its Alameda campus on Sunday, December 13, for a full day of volunteering, learning, and meeting people who like to get things done outside.

The day starts at 10 am with new volunteer orientation, followed by a morning work session, a BYO lunch hang, an afternoon session, then clean up as the sun starts to drop.

This is the kind of place where the atmosphere feels active and grounded. Expect garden beds, tools, compost, animals, projects in progress, and people moving between tasks with muddy shoes and useful advice.

The day’s performers are the volunteer leads, gardeners, builders, makers, and neighbors showing how the work gets done. Tasks may include watering, planting, compost building, animal care, light construction, fabrication, or heavier building work, depending on what the campus needs that week.

You do not need to be an expert. Kids, adults, first timers, and regulars are welcome. If you want a low pressure way to meet local people, learn useful skills, and help a climate focused community space in Alameda, this is a good Sunday plan.

REAP asks everyone to fill out the waiver before coming to campus. You can do that here: reapcenter.org/waiver. It is also worth reading the volunteer info before you go: reapcenter.org/volunteering.

Where: REAP Climate Center, 2133
