THE
COMMON GROUND NEEDS YOUR HELP
In order for the gardens at the park to look and
be vibrant and alive, we need many hands to help
tend them. Please join our gardening season from 9
to 11 am. Tools are provided or bring your
favorite ones. As always, there are chores for the
non-gardeners in our community, too. Please come
to experience the joy of volunteering your time
and leaving your "mark" on our beautiful community
garden.
Gardening and classes are on the first and third
Saturdays of every month from 9 to 11 am beginning
in April. Please check back here for exact dates
for these events:
