There’s More Than One Way to Help

The Loop grows because people share what they have.

Some give an afternoon.

Some donate money or materials.

Some offer a fruit tree or a piece of land.

Each contribution helps turn local resources into food, habitat, and community care.

Volunteer

Join planting days, cleanups, fruit gleaning, harvesting, maintenance, or behind-the-scenes support.

Nominate a Yard

Nominate a neighbor, senior, family, or community space for a volunteer-supported cleanup.

Offer Your Yard

Have a sunny lawn, unused bed, side yard, or lot? Offer it to The Loop! We evaluate the site, create a plan, and arrange care. 100% of food from a dedicated plot is donated to locals in need and through local food-access efforts in Santa Barbara.

Share a Fruit Tree

Have more fruit than you can use? Add your tree to our gleaning network so good food reaches people instead of the ground.

Donate through Venmo

Donations help cover plants, seeds, soil, irrigation, tools, transportation, volunteer-day supplies, and long term garden care for our pro bono publico community members.
