Volunteer in the Healing Garden
Volunteers meet at the GHV Healing Garden in North Chicago on Saturdays. You build raised beds, prepare soil, weed and prune alongside local veterans, and help get fresh food to local food pantries.
The work on a Saturday

New cedar beds go in as the Healing Garden grows.
Prepare the soil
Fill and ready the beds so they are set for planting.
Weed and prune
Steady care through the season keeps the plants healthy and the harvest coming.

Hoop houses are next
GHV is planning hoop houses and ongoing garden care for 2027. More growing space means more Saturdays where an extra pair of hands counts.
Can't make a Saturday?
If Saturdays don't work for you, a gift keeps the beds planted and fresh food going to local pantries.
