How long have you been gardening? Chances are it’s not as long as our friends at the Picardo P-Patch, Master Gardener Foundation and Seattle Tilth, all of which are celebrating BIG anniversaries this year. Combined, these three organizations have provided over 110 years of gardening opportunities and expertise to the community.
And now, they’re sowing the seeds for volunteers to help at the American Community Gardening Association (ACGA) conference this coming August! There are lots of ways you can help as both volunteer and participant; the current roster of activities includes:
◾Food truck rodeo
◾Film festival
◾Tours of P-Patches
◾Workshops, workshops, workshops!
◾Gala dinner with music
◾Speakers, panels
◾Exhibits
◾Silent auction
More details can be found on the event page. If you’re interested in volunteering, please complete the application and contact Eileen Eininger at eeininger@hotmail.com.
Happy thoughts of summer gardening to get us through these last few weeks of winter!
