Description

Dig into sustainability education and community action by collaborating with Ricks Center students, ages 3-13, in the garden! We are waking up our food garden for a new year of growth and are seeking extra hands. Garden produce goes to Ricks Center Garden-to-table program as well as Metro Caring’s food justice program. Volunteer tasks include clearing out last year’s plant refuse, loosening soil, composting and planting alongside students. We’ll also put a fresh coat of paint on the raised garden boxes to prepare for student painting. We look forward to working with you as we get our hands dirty in the garden! Training and guidance will be provided.
