Take the first 2 left turns, and you'll wind up in a dead end with the outback meeting area on your left. Parking is available in the Arboretum lot, on 25th street, and on taylor street just south of Bill McDonald Pkwy. http://goo.gl/maps/lb0C.
** When:Tuesday, June 12th, 6:00-7:30 work, 7:30 meal.
** Requested Items to Bring: Gloves - we have all necessary tools.
** Tasks: Weeding, planting starts, mulching pathways. There are always plenty of things to work on, and I'd be happy to give a tour of the whole space. We have gardens, an orchard, honey bees, chickens, an amphitheater, and much more!
** Food: A meal will be provided. A cob oven is available.
** Host: Roby Ventres-Pake, Outback Coordinator, 360-300-7328, as.outback@wwu.edu. The Outback is a student-run mini farm at Western Washington University. We have a number of unique gardens (including community gardens), we host workshops, we teach students, and we have fun in the dirt. Our website is currently under development, but the old site is at http://www.wwu.edu/fairhaven/studentlife/outback/.
** Questions: email Jean at artiseverywhere [at] yahoo [dot] com, or volunteer@sustainablebellingham.org.
