Prepping will include clearing out any debris (leaves/sticks) that has accumulated over the winter, putting down a new layer of topsoil, covering that in a layer of mulch, adding fertilizer, and cleaning any tools we may have used in the process.
Please arrive 10-15 minutes early for your packing event so we can start on time!
Make sure to wear close-toes shoes and warm clothes and/or layers as we will be outside. First, we'll have a brief orientation in the volunteer center. Next we'll head outside to the garden!
We are so excited to have you come volunteer with us!
If this date needs to be changed at all due to weather or other factors those registered will contacted with the back up date information and be given the opportunity to register for the new date first.
Since this volunteer event is outside we encourage all volunteers to bring water, sunscreen, and a hat if desired. Gardening gloves will be provided.
Health and Safety Update
Masks are currently not required but are encouraged if that is your preference as part of our continued efforts to follow CDC Guidelines.
