This weekend we partnered with Garden to Table and the Downtown Streets Team to engage community members to volunteer and help clear out our next neighborhood community garden.

A wonderful couple shared their backyard for three households to transform into a neighborhood garden.

These households and community members will be determined in the coming weeks. Each household will receive materials, guidance, and assistance to grow a successful organic garden free of pesticides and chemicals.

Check our our photos documenting our progress throughout the volunteer workday, and share them with your friends.

If this piqued your interest, email us at g2t@cucsj.org to get involved with our community garden project and Gardening Sustainably program.
