Garden Day at GROWHOUSE

Phoenix Platoon

Event overview

Join your comrades with 1st and 2nd Platoon Phoenix for a fun day of service in honor of MLK Day of Service! "Come in, grow out" in the GROWHOUSE - Roosevelt Grow Collective Garden is a volunteer driven community garden and creative space located in the Roosevelt Row arts district. We are seeking volunteers to help with garden projects such as preparing garden beds, planting, weeding, building garden structures, irrigation and watering, and various art projects and other garden beautification projects. Living on what was formerly a blighted, vacant property downtown, the now thriving garden sells veggies every week at the Community Exchange Table at the Downtown Phoenix Public Market and to nearby cafes. It is now part of Roosevelt Row CDC's A.R.T.S. (Adaptive Reuse of Temporary Space) Program to activate vacant lots downtown. The minimum age is 8 with a parent or guardian.

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
