RSVP for Service Raleigh – Saturday, March 29 from 9 – 12pm.
Service Raleigh is an annual event that brings together NCSU students, neighbors, Citizens Advisory Council (CAC) members, family, and friends to volunteer in our community. This year, you can lend a hand to prepare garden beds for the spring at the Wedge Community Garden. We have a few big projects lined up that require lots of helpers! This year we will:
- Raise all beds with untreated wood;
- Pick up dirt, pebbles, and cow manure in a dump truck;
- Cover rest of the pathways with pebbles;
- Clear out all beds from winter crops;
- Fill vegetable beds with dirt and manure;
- Turn soil in all beds with shovels;
- Organize shed;
- And of course plant lots of vegetables, flowers, and herbs.
NEED A TRUCK: If you have a pick-up truck or access to a truck, please indicate that in your RSVP. Some of the work above requires a truck and we would be most grateful if someone can help out.
Join us on Park Avenue, near the Alexander YMCA! Sign up now: RSVP for Service Raleigh 2014
