Kicking the season off with a complete garden rebuild of the Madeleine Fuqua Garden. Our large community garden was torn down last year and is ready to be rebuilt to serve the community once again.
Volunteers will assemble garden beds, set them in place, and fill them with soil. Pathways need to be covered in woodchips. Greentown Grows will supply shovels and wheelbarrows; however, bringing work or garden gloves is recommended. For complete details and to reserve a spot on the event list, click HERE.
Reservations are handled on Eventbrite but don’t worry, it’s free! Eventbrite will send out a reminder email 48 hours in advance.
