Evans Homes & Gardens
Gaithersburg, Maryland • Volunteer With Us
Come get your hands
in the soil with us.
A few hours here goes further than you'd think.
Fresh produce doesn't reach a family's table by accident — it takes a whole community of hands. We'd love yours to be one of them.

It takes more than two of us to run a farm.
There's a simple idea at the heart of everything we grow here: food should reach the people who need it. Every Friday, our crew harvests what the season has given us — produce that reaches our market stands and, through our partnership with Manna Food Center, families across Montgomery County.
This year, we're inviting our community to be part of that story — not just to visit the garden center, but to help us grow it and keep it beautiful. We're a small, hands-on team, so we like to actually talk with everyone before scheduling a first day — it helps us match you to the right task and date.
Every Friday
Field Days
Get your hands in the dirt. Join us out in the fields to help pick, sort, and pack the week's harvest — produce that reaches our market stands and, through Manna Food Center, families across the county.
Every Other Saturday
Nursery Days
Help us keep the garden center beautiful. Weeding, watering, restaging displays, tending and highlighting the flowers — the kind of care that makes a space feel worth wandering through.
