Dorchester Gardens Service Event

Chicago Platoon

Event overview

Calling on all to come out and help with construction of amenities to be added to the Dorchester Community Garden located in the Woodlawn neighborhood. On the day of service, we will work to accomplish the assembling of a hoop house and a foundation for it to be placed on, laying brick pavers, installing a fence, and picking up any trash/debris surrounding the property. The Dorchester Community Garden has a strong community provides fresh food and gathering space to those who do not have ample access to either. This is a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a community that needs it.
