Young Professional Green TeamThis group exists to create a community of beginner gardeners- to connect and educate young professionals about gardening and environmental conservation.TreeforestationWe’ve kicked off a new project at the CGC: Treeforestation. We started this reforestation project to save and protect Cincinnati’s green spaces. We will begin by having a series of invasive removal workdays, and then will begin planting native trees. This is an ongoing project, and we could use your help!Saturday Clean-UpsFocus on a different community garden each session, to get those in need of it back in good shape. These opportunities are great for beginner gardeners as well as experienced.Community GardensWe can plug you in to work with the garden in your neighborhood, or, those with more availability and experience can join our new On-Call Garden Crew.Dirt CrewOur dependable, amazing Dirt Crew volunteers are here every Wednesday morning from 9-11:30am. |
