Volunteer Work Day at New Roots - Sat June 23

The IRC New Roots Community Farm Saturday Work Party!

The IRC New Roots Community Farm provides growing space for 80 families in the City Heights area.  Many of the participants were farmers in their home countries and this is their first opportunity to grow crops in the United States.  We need your help to take care of the common areas of the farm.

The work days take place on the 4th Saturday of the month.

Space is limited to 30 people.  Large groups should contact Sharon.Kennedy@Rescue.org to inquire about space.  Additional information will be sent to those who RSVP.   You need not fill out a volunteer application for this one day volunteer opportunity.

Closed toe shoes
Weather appropriate clothing (i.e. pancho for rain, long sleeves if sunny, sunscreen, etc.)
