Hands On Harvests' mission:
To create and sustain a network of growers producing more fresh fruits and vegetables for Northern Virginians.

We believe that gardeners and farmers have knowledge that can improve our community exponentially.

Hands On Harvests provides seeds, seedlings and mentorship to all gardeners, wherever they grow. Our community gardens give people a place to grow food for themselves.

Come play in the dirt with us!

It doesn't matter if you know how to garden or not. We'll show you the ropes or invite you to be at a table with us, talking with the public.

Experienced green thumbs and newbie gardeners: Welcome to workdays at The EGG!

Eileen Garnett Civic Space, 7200 Columbia Pike, Annandale.

  • The EGG, or Eileen Garnett Garden, is Hands On Harvests' urban farm in central Annandale. We provide gloves, tools, beverages, refreshments and instruction.  

  • Weekend workdays are 8-10 a.m. in the summer.

  • Midweek Breakfast Club runs 7:30-8:30 a.m., followed by a walk to a diner or cafe to cool off together.

 

​Other opportunities: 

  • HOH is forming a Community Engagement team. The first meeting will be on Zoom on Tuesday, July 15 at 1:30 p.m.  Email for more information, to express interest or to request the Zoom link if you can attend.

  • Would you be willing to show your garden to others? We’re planning a progressive dinner that would feature different gardens and food-growing techniques. The gardens can be wherever you grow food, as long as the site can be accessed in the evening or on a weekend. Throw your name in the hat here

  • Help manage Grow A Row data: Transfer online data reported by growers to HOH’s online produce donation spreadsheet. Approximately 15 minutes a week. Remote and indoor work.
