Nonprofit
Weekend Garden Work Party for Community Service
Details
Description
Join fellow gardeners working in the garden, ongoing, usually on Sunday mornings. This water conservation garden demonstrates native plants and uses no herbicides and pesticides to provide wildlife habitat.
We always can use an extra pair of hands to help with pruning, chipping, weeding, composting, mulching, raking, and other garden maintenance.
We also need someone who can stop by the garden during the week to observe and record both wildlife activity and human activity, taking photographs and keep a log for us, which we’ll use for our web site, blog and Facebook.
Being in a garden, being outdoors, and especially in a wildlife habitat helps to relieve stress and boredom. At the same time, know you are helping PHIG and your community!
We work in small groups. Please stay at home if you are not feeling well. Please bring your own water, gloves, and if available, small hand tools for gardening.
