Volunteer
We’d love to have your help!
As a non-profit, we rely on the help of our community, their skills, and their expertise.
THE COMMUNITY LOVER
Plant people, this one’s for you.
Our community booth, called Heart of HOU, offers rehoming services for both plants and plant supplies.
When someone has a pot or hangers that they no longer need or want, they can drop it off at the booth. Other visitors are welcome to take anything and as much as they need.
Our Take a Plant, Leave a Plant station accepts plants and cuttings from the community. If someone drops off a cutting or plant, they’re welcome to take one home. Rehabs or plants that no longer spark joy get a chance to thrive in a new home.
THE EXPERT
Instructors, knowledge-bearers, and pros.
Want to donate your skills and expertise? Whether you’re looking to help educate vendors or visitors, your service is deeply valued.
Grow your brand while teaching our visitors about different trades and skills like floral arrangement, plant repotting, yoga, and more.
Want to go beyond the market? Our vendors could benefit greatly from workshops about tax compliance, accounting, brand management, marketing, ad campaigns, and more.
THE DIRECTOR
Love organization? So do we.
Help us get vendors into their assigned spaces, make sure that our volunteer team is where they need to be, and that everything is set up on time and running smoothly.
THE HANDY HELPER
Getting hands-on and personal.
Our vendors could always use an extra hand with unloading their cars, setting up their tents, or putting their displays together.
When you volunteer to lend them your help, you’re leaving a lasting impression and forming a real connection.
Handy helpers also help us put up signage and banners!
THE SALESPERSON
Let’s get this merch on the road.
Merch sales help us earn some passive income to reinvest into the markets. Your sales prowess gets visitors into something they love while they help support a good cause. Everybody wins!
Our salespeople earn double the progress towards their free swag milestones. (See more info below.)
BEYOND THE MARKET
THE EVENT PLANNER
Put together something special.
If you’re wanting to go a little bigger with your generosity, planning an event is an awesome way to get involved. Whether it’s a networking event, entertainment, or just a hangout, we’d love to share your space and work with you to make some memories.
THE FUNDRAISER
Passionate about non-profit?
Help us reach out to businesses and individuals that you know who may want to support or contribute. Once we get in touch with them, we’ll handle the rest!
THE ADVOCATE
Volunteer from home.
You don’t need to show up to a market to help us out, you can do it from the comfort of your own bed, yacht, or penthouse loft!
