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.
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 (across from Youngblood Intermediate School). Look for our white circle sign near the street and a sunflower mural as you walk next to the chained link fence to approach the entrance of the farm.
