Every day is Earth Day around here — Seattle is brimming with environmentally minded nonprofits and organizations looking for passionate volunteers year-round.

Find an opportunity to help out near you.

Puget Soundkeeper

This organization focuses its resources on clean ups and community events. Help pick up debris along the shoreline, remove waste in local parks, and clean surrounding water sources via kayaks.

Black Farmers Collective

As one of its several functions, Black Farmers Collective hosts open farm days every Saturday, 10 a.m.-3 p.m., at Yes Farm. The farm, which covers 1.5 acres at Yesler Terrace, gives freshly grown produce directly to BIPOC-led and owned organizations, businesses, and mutual aid efforts.

Furniture Repair Bank

You can donate furniture, lend a hand on repair days, and join group volunteer events with this nonprofit, which refurbishes used furniture for refugees and low-income households.
