It’s possible we could connect you with a community garden with a work day, do you have a specific area of the city in mind? Additionally, in May, CCGA will host a large plant distribution and is usually in need of volunteers to help prepare the trays of plants and assist with the event. I’m not sure of the day of the CCGA event, it could be a Saturday, but sometimes they are on a Friday.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Mar 25, 2025, at 2:06 PM, Danielle Dyksterhouse via Communications <communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta charset="UTF-8"><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">Hello –<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">I’m reaching out to see if it would be possible for a group of our employees to volunteer in May.
