Event Description

SB Roving Garden Party- 5/19 - WWU - 5pm

Join Sustainable Bellingham's 3rd annual Roving Garden Party series, where volunteers help their neighbors create an edible garden. These fun events consist of approximately 90 minutes of gardening, followed by a shared meal. Everyone is welcome!

This week we will be at The Outback, a five acre student-run site at the south end of Fairhaven College which teaches, develops and implements sustainable growing and land use methods in order to enrich the student body, the University, and the Bellingham community. http://www.wwu.edu/fairhaven/studentlife/outback

* Where: The Outback is behind Fairhaven College at WWU. Here is a link to the South Campus map, http://bit.ly/iygbdx. The Outback will be to the right of the FX where it appears to be just a field. You can walk straight through the Fairhaven Complex to reach it.
* Parking: The south end gravel (C) lots do not require a WWU permit after 4:30PM Monday-Friday. Campus Map PDF: http://bit.ly/iANZ99. Park in the C lot closest to Fairhaven College (building #31).
