Work Hours

In order to keep our Garden Plot Fees affordable, each gardener is required to complete 4 Work Hours (per plot) a year. This means, they must do some gardening work in the community garden. We do offer Group Work Days every Wednesday and Monthly for those who wish you attend and complete their work hours with other gardeners. You can also complete them on your own time.

You are welcome to complete your volunteer Work Hours independently (see ideas listed below).


Remember to submit the Work Hours Tracker Form in order to get credit!

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

horše ṭuuxi
!
Native American Student Development recognizes that UC Berkeley sits on the territory of xučyun (Huichin), the ancestral and unceded land of the Chochenyo speaking Ohlone people, the successors of the sovereign Verona Band of Alameda County. This land was and continues to be of great importance to the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and other familial descendants of the Verona Band. 

We recognize that every member of the Berkeley community has benefitted, and continues to benefit, from the use and occupation of this land since the institution’s founding in 1868. Consistent with our values of community, inclusion and diversity, we have a responsibility to acknowledge and make visible the university’s relationship to Native peoples. As members of the Berkeley community, it is vitally important that we not only recognize the history of the land on which we stand, but also, we recognize that the Muwekma Ohlone people are alive and flourishing members of the Berkeley and broader Bay Area communities today.

This acknowledgement was co-created with the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and Native American Student Development and is a living document.
