The Racine Urban Garden Network is always excited to bring new members onto our committees. As a growing organization, getting fresh ideas for our growth is as important as it is fun! We have several committees that are seeking members.
1. Education and Events:Organize educational opportunities and workshops in all things gardening for RUGN gardeners and community members. Help our team to plan events, including orientation events, fundraising events, and educational workshops.
2. Grants and Fundraising:Find funds to keep our gardens growing and to add more gardens to our network.
3. PR and Marketing:Promote RUGN and our gardens. Work with the other committees to get the word out about events and activities. Experience with gardening is not required.
4. Volunteer Recruiting and Coordinating:Find and coordinate the volunteers that make RUGN possible.
RUGN's committees are filled by people with many different backgrounds and skills. Skills that we are currently seeking include marketing, land-use planning and development, and events coordination. However, an enthusiasm for what RUGN does for our community is qualification enough for any interested person!
