Help Us Close Out the Garden!
Remember when we rolled up our sleeves this spring to help the residents of Batavia Apartments get their community garden ready for the growing season? Well, now it’s time to come full circle!
Join us for our Fall Day of Caring on Wednesday, September 30, from 9 a.m.–12 p.m. as we help close out the garden and get the space ready for winter.
We’ll be working alongside residents to:
🌱 Complete the final harvest
🍂 Tackle fall garden cleanup
🪴 Lay mulch
💧 Give the trees a deep watering before winter
No gardening expertise is needed—just a willingness to get your hands a little dirty and spend a morning making a difference!
