Thank you to the Environmental Justice Group and to all the volunteers who came out to our first annual Garden Party last Saturday!  

We are so impressed with the amazing work that was poured into our church property by our 30 volunteers (ranging in age from 7 to 80+ years old!) ... digging, weeding, pruning, hauling, shovelling, etc.  The property looks fantastic and is ready for spring planting!  We also enjoyed a great time of community-building and had a delicious lunch together following the yard work.

We hope you'll join us next year!

Also, if anyone is interested in helping with ongoing garden and yardwork throughout the spring and summer months, please contact the church office.  We'd love your help and there's always lots to do!
