About this Opportunity

Are you Vegan friendly? Aware of the challenges inherent in getting fresh fruits and vegetables during the off growing season? Can you spare an hour or two every other week to assist a local senior in getting to the local grocer for access to fresh foods, spending a little time socializing and then when the weather is nice enjoying some good time in the dirt? This green thumb has grown herbs, made oils and potpourri, cultivated heirloom seeds for vegetables and flowers. Act now to secure your place in the fertile Windsor soil and you can learn from this lovely octogenarian who needs a little extra help getting around town. This opportunity won't last long so apply now!
