We are looking for help in Pete’s Giving Garden!
Join us in Pete’s Giving Garden and help us with the garden duties! Join us from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. to get your hands in the dirt and enjoy the great outdoors for a few hours and help us with the garden.
We have ADA beds for those who may have mobility issues or would like to garden standing up. If you need access to our ADA beds we have road access to the garden if you need to arrive in a vehicle. The vehicle will have to be moved once the passenger has entered the garden.
Currently, we are in the process of weeding, both Pete’s Giving Garden (PGG) and the Bee Campus USA (BCU) gardens, deadheading the BCU garden, planting seeds in PGG, and adding compost and mulch.
All produce grown goes to the two food pantries on campus run by Hendricks Chapel and overseen by Sustainability Management in their space on South Campus at 161 Farm Acre Road.
The garden is a partnership between Sustainability Management, David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamic Food Studies and Nutrition Program, and Hendricks Chapel Food Pantry.
