Event overview

Join Us for a Day of Impact and Unity with The Mission Continues DC Platoon!

On Saturday, September 7th, we invite you to make a difference at Arcadia, the heart of six vibrant weekend farmer's markets east of the Anacostia River. Together, we'll build a greenhouse to enhance Arcadia's capacity and plant fruit trees with local Veterans Farmer Training Program farmers.

This project is part of our United in Service Campaign, honoring the legacy of 9/11 by empowering veterans through community service. By participating, you'll contribute to a sustainable farming environment and stand with us in fostering a spirit of unity, resilience, and service.

Let's cultivate change together. Join us for a day that will leave a lasting impact on the community and in your heart.
