Community Garden Spring Setup

Help prepare our community garden for the growing season. Plots provide fresh produce to 30 low-income families.

The Eastside Community Garden provides free garden plots to 30 low-income families, giving them access to fresh, healthy produce throughout the growing season. We need volunteers to help prepare the garden for spring planting.

What You'll Do

Help clear winter debris, turn soil, build new raised beds, install irrigation lines, and prepare plots for families. This is a great hands-on outdoor project that makes a visible difference.

Event Details

We're hosting three Saturday work days in April to get everything ready. Each session runs from 8 AM to 1 PM with lunch provided. Come to one or come to all three!

What to Bring

  • Work gloves (we have extras if needed)
  • Sunscreen and water bottle
  • Sturdy shoes or boots
  • Any garden tools you'd like to share

Skills Needed

No gardening experience necessary! We welcome all skill levels. If you have carpentry skills for building raised beds, that's a bonus.
