Needs From: Volunteer Houston

Volunteer: Shamba Ya Amani Farm Work Day

Everyone is welcome to participate in Shamba Days. You’ll help with whatever the farm may need... mulching, weeding, planting, harvesting, and more!

Shamba Ya Amani, the Farm of Peace, is working for justice by feeding our community, both body and soul. We feed the body by growing vegetables and fruit, raising honeybees, and tending flowers. We feed the soul by building this farm together, forming a connection to each other and to the earth we are cultivating.

Bring a bottle of water and wear long pants and closed-toe shoes or boots!

Shamba Ya Amani (Farm of Peace) can be found at this address: 
8401 Dairy View Lane
Houston, TX 77072
There is parking along the street and a Metro bus station nearby at Beechnut and Dairy View Lane. Look for our white circle sign near the street and a sunflower mural as you approach the entrance of the farm.

All minors under the age of 16 must complete a release form in order to volunteer.

Volunteer: Shamba Ya Amani Flower Team

Surround yourself with flowers in the field and form friendships with those who care for them! You can help our Flower Team on Fridays, 9 - 11 am. Lend a helping hand to harvest flowers, care for flower rows (seeding, weeding, planting, staking, watering, etc.), and even creating beautiful market bouquets! No experience necessary; you'll be shown what to do. Please bring a refillable water bottle and a snack. It's advised that you wear sunscreen, hat, pants, work boots or rain boots, and a light-weight long sleeve shirt -- yes, even in the summer! It's important to keep your skin protected and you'll be more comfortable and cool that way. We will work under shade as much as possible. We have gloves and tools at the farm you can utilize.
