Rooted in Service: 2nd Annual Earth Day of Service

This initiative brings together community members to engage in sustainable gardening practices while building lasting connections.
Volunteers will take on various hands-on projects to get the garden ready for the season and make the space even better for the community. Stay tuned for more details on specific tasks!
