Volunteer in Pete’s Giving Garden

Embrace the spirit of Earth Month by lending a hand in Pete’s Giving Garden! Immerse yourself in the joy of getting your hands dirty while basking in the great outdoors. As we embark on the garden’s opening phase, bring your gardening shoes or boots as we engage in bed preparation, gardens tend to be muddy at this time of the year.

We will be focusing on preparing the beds for the seeds and seedlings that will be planted in late May. Alongside readying the garden beds for future seeds and plants, we will introduce cold-weather seed favorites like broccoli and cauliflower for direct sowing too. Additionally, over the two weeks we will be working in the garden we will experiment with repurposed plexiglass sneezeguards to create a greenhouse effect this year. We are excited to plant other seeds, such as lettuce and carrots to contribute to an early vegetable harvest for the food pantry this summer.
