Volunteer
Volunteers are the heart of our nonprofit!
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Resilient Roots.
Volunteers maintain our demonstration garden, install edible landscapes at Habitat for Humanity houses, help with our annual plant sale, and so much more. A few hours a week of your time offers invaluable support that brings our mission and services to the community—and in exchange, offers you the opportunity to learn more about eco-friendly gardening while forging new connections.
By filling out our Volunteer Signup Form, you can let us know about your availability and how you would like to help out. If you’re looking for a one-time event, just scroll down and register for a certain option.
Volunteer Opportunities

Habitat for Humanity Landscape Installations
Join the Resilient Roots team as we turn new Habitat for Humanity of Cape Cod house lots in Dennis into low-maintenance, edible landscapes filled with native plants. You’ll get hands-on experience with permaculture techniques while helping a local family bring their yard to life.
These are full-day events, and we rely on every volunteer to make each one-day transformation possible. Be ready for digging, building, and planting, but also for plenty of fun, learning, and community connection!
Stay tuned here for sign-ups.

Resilient Roots Garden
Join us at Fuller Farm in Marstons Mills to help maintain and grow our demonstration garden. We’re there every Wednesday morning and on select Saturdays, doing everything from weeding and planting to mulching, watering, and harvesting.
This special site, a collaboration with the Barnstable Land Trust, hosts many of our hands-on workshops, is open to the public to showcase nature-based gardening practices, and grows fresh produce for local food pantries.
