When: Saturday, April 20 and 27 and May 4
Who is invited: Everyone
Where: Randolph Street Community Garden

Come support the Randolph Street Community Garden. The coordinator of the garden, Rev. Dawn Blackman, has asked for volunteers to help clean and fix up the garden. This garden is a GREAT resource for lower income folks in north Champaign- providing a way to grow fresh vegetables. Families and individuals can “claim” beds in the garden to grow food for their own consumption. The garden supplies seeds, mulch, water, tools, and a sense of community.

Our church has supported this garden financially and through work parties in past years.

Youth are welcome if accompanied by a parent or other adult. There are always a variety of tasks for people of differing energy and strengths, such as pulling weeds, putting cardboard in the walkways, hauling mulch, cutting back overgrown raspberries, repairing the raised beds, and picking up trash.

Will you volunteer to work for 2 hours (10am-noon) on one of these two upcoming Saturdays?

Saturday, April 27
Saturday, May 4

The garden is located in Champaign just north of Stratton School on Randolph Street.
