Operation Tampa Bay Blitz- Mon Jun 23- Sweetwater

Day four of Operation Tampa Bay Blitz will take place at Sweetwater Organic Community Farm. They were established in 1995 as a nonprofit community-supported urban organic farm and environmental education center in Tampa, Florida. They are located on 6 acres of suburban property along Sweetwater Creek in Tampa’s Town ‘n’ Country neighborhood, in Hillsborough County, Florida. At Sweetwater, community members come together to grow and enjoy fresh organic food, acquire sustainable living skills, support local agriculture, enjoy nature, make new friends and be a part of the community.

Together with our partners, we are spending the day:
Expanding garden productivity by adding more growing beds
Improving and creating more spaces for educational programming
Enhancing pathways through the garden

Operation Tampa Bay Blitz:
Get ready to witness the power of a veteran-led community impact with our 9th Annual Mass Deployment! This electrifying team-based service event brings together veterans, local partners, and volunteers in a single city for an entire week of non-stop action.

From June 20-24, we will be partnering with seven local organizations to complete transformational projects that will boost the current efforts of the partner and impact local community members. Our projects will be taking place in the greater Tampa area. For more information visit our website.
