You're invited to our monthly Community Workday at the Dr. George Washington Carver Edible Park!We've had to make a few changes because of schedule conflicts, so we won't necessarily be meeting every 3rd Friday of the month for the rest of the year. Take a look at the schedule, and keep an eye out for changes. This event is updated as promptly as possible. We will continue to meet from 2:30–5:00pm (or 9am to 12pm June, July, and August). The park is located at 30 George Washington Carver Avenue, Asheville.
🅿️ Parking: Stephens-Lee Recreation Center lot.
⏰ Summer Hours: June, July, and August workdays meet from 9:00am–12:00pm.
The knowledgeable Kelly Applegate of Bountiful Cities will lead most workdays. If you have any questions, contact Kelly [email protected]
We provide all necessary tools, hand sanitizer, water, and snacks. Feel free to bring your own tools or gloves if you have favorites—more is always welcome! We also have extra gloves available. Masks are optional.
Activities may include:
• Mulching
• Light tree & shrub pruning
• Trash pickup
• Invasive plant clearing
• Seasonal planting (when available)
• A guided tour of the edible park
These community workdays are proudly presented in partnership with the East End/Valley Street Neighborhood Association and Bountiful Cities, with additional collaboration from the City of Asheville Sustainability Department. Asheville GreenWorks generously provides supplies for trash pickup.
For any last-minute updates, please check the Dr. George Washington Carver Edible Park Facebook Page before heading out.
We look forward to seeing you and sharing a day of community, sustainability, and fun! 🌿
