It’s been a long time in the making but the garden is starting to take shape! Volunteers have been hard at work preparing and organizing the garden build this season, making sure it’s safe for everyone. The garden will be built in phases over the next few weeks.
Over the past weekend, volunteers moved lumber on site and built the first set of garden boxes. Follow along the build’s progress on Instagram.

A gas-powered lawnmower (working or repairable). Update: We have one!
