Roving Garden Party Offered!

[Andrew Eckels]

Want a bunch of enthusiastic college students to come to your place and work on/start an edible garden for 90 minutes? We're delighted to do this in exchange for one thing: a home cooked meal that we can sit down and enjoy together after gardening! 

Our club Transition WWU has been doing garden parties in the York neighborhood every Tuesday this quarter. We're looking to do more than one party a week and get into some different neighborhoods. 

More of us are likely to show up if your place is close to (a short bike ride or bus) from campus (usually there are 7-10 of us) but please do reach out even if you live a longer ways away!

Andrew,

Sounds good to me. Perhaps you would get back to me and we can figure it out.

Regards,

Celt

I would be very interested in this! I have a fairly large yard in Fairhaven. I haven't been able to do as much gardening and I would like due to health issues. This would be incredibly helpful.

Please contact me.

Thanks!
