VOLUNTEER
Delaware educators nurture young minds every day—and they wear many hats. At Healthy Foods for Healthy Kids, we team up with teachers to inspire healthier lives, and we invite community members like you to help us strengthen families across Delaware for generations to come.
Volunteers play a vital role in expanding our reach and deepening our impact. Whether building garden beds, maintaining them, or joining one of our active committees, there is a place for you in our joyful, growing movement.
As a statewide organization operating in all three Delaware counties, we offer meaningful ways to get involved. Complete the form below to join the movement and help “Veggie-cate” the First State—one garden at a time.
“It is in your hands to create a better world for all who live in it.”
