*** THE NEW DATE FOR THIS PROJECT IS SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 26 ***

Come out to celebrate the life and contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King and get your hands dirty! Our primary tasks will be building new garden beds and rebuilding one existing garden bed. Secondarily, we will be weeding, planting, and other tasks necessary to keep the garden producing. There will be plenty of opportunities to socialize, learn about gardening, and participate in some thought-provoking conversations.
