Grounding and barefoot walking welcomed. Feel free to dig up natives and food & first aid plants off our lawn and pollinator plants all over in wrong places in our mulched garden.
Also join us in supporting our veterans' demonstration garden! Participate in a hands-on learning experience and take home:
- Plants (starts, seedlings, and cuttings)
- Free seeds from our community seed exchange (feel free to bring your extras to share)
- And more!
All day you can come and check out garden, pull weeds, make plants to take home, harvest anything y’all want, etc… yet instructions teachers are at 7:30 am to 9:00 am and more time. 3rd Saturday of every month.
