Community Garden Volunteering

Bloomington Community Gardens Program is looking for volunteers to help with maintenance. The program offers organic plots, as well as financial aid for people who need help to cover the cost of renting a plot. Groups of 5-25 can volunteer in 3-4 hour shifts at one of the two community gardens. Here are the links to the two gardens:

Willie Streeter CommunityGardens: http://bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=212
Crestmont Community Gardens: http://bloomington.in.gov/documents/viewDocument.php?document_id=211

If this sounds like something you are interested in, please let START know (speastart@gmail.com), or you can directly contact Natalie at nmmesser@indiana.edu. Once we receive enough interest, Natalie will set up a shift on a Saturday or Sunday and then hopefully make regular arrangements for students who are interested and available.
