Volunteer Day & Open House

Volunteer Day and Open House at REAP Climate Center in Alameda
If you have been meaning to get your hands in the soil before the year wraps up, REAP Climate Center is opening its Alameda campus on Wednesday, December 30, from 2 to 6 pm.
The space at 2133 Tynan Ave has that practical, neighbor powered feel. People come through to water, plant, build compost, help with animals, and take on small build projects around the site. Some days are mellow garden days. Some days need heavier hands. Either way, it is a good way to meet people who care about climate work at ground level.
There are no listed performers for this one. The people making the afternoon happen are the volunteers, organizers, gardeners, builders, and curious first timers who show up ready to help. Around 5 pm, the day usually shifts into a Fireside Potluck, which sounds like a nice way to close out a few hours of shared work.
Before heading over, read the volunteer info and FAQ, and make sure to sign the online waiver. All ages need a signed waiver before coming onto the campus.
Bring clothes you can work in, shoes that can get dusty, and a little patience if tasks change with the weather or what the site needs that week.
