Event overview

Please join us Saturday, March 9th for a day of service with our friends at DC Urban Greens. We are going to help make tables, prep the beds for planting and prepare the crops for the incoming rain and snow season. The compost bin needs fixing and we might make some new homes for the hard working red wiggler worms. If we finish early there is plenty of general maintenance around the grounds that can get done too. The farm contributes more than 3000 lbs of food to the local community, and as the garden is located in a part of Ward 8 with little to no access to fresh foods, it's absolutely essential to the overall health of the neighborhood. Bring your water proof clothes and prepare to get dirty!
