Earth Week/Global Youth Service Day Opportunity

 In honor of Earth Day and Global Youth Service Day, the Campus Kitchen Project at UWEC and the Phoenix Garden are holding a volunteer work day at the new downtown Phoenix community garden.  We will be working in the garden to prepare the soil, build beds, and do a little planting!  No experience needed, just be prepared to get a little dirty. 

Friday, April 23rd from 1:00pm-4:00pm
 

You are welcome to come for all three hours or for any portion of time you can offer.
Phoenix Garden is located on Forest Street, just north of the Madison Street Bridge and the Farmer's Market Pavilion in Phoenix Park.  The Phoenix Garden is committed to improving food security in our community by growing produce for those who can't easily access it and using our green spaces for sustainable projects. 

Please consider giving a few hours of your time during this week dedicated to service and sustainability and pass this information along to anyone who may be interested!
