Summary

Wasatch Community Gardens (WCG) is a community-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering people to grow and eat healthy, organic, local food. Since 1989, we have provided children, adults, and families in Salt Lake County with access to land and education for growing and eating fresh produce, while building and nurturing community connections through gardening and healthy food. We accomplish this through five main programs: Community Garden, Community Education, Youth and School Gardens, Job Training, and Volunteers.

This position requires strong communication and time management skills,
self-motivation, the ability to work as part of a team, and a passion for teaching youth to grow and eat
healthy, organic, local food.
