Join CGC Horticulturist Julie for some hands-on gardening experience at the Hauck Botanic Garden. This 100-year-old public park serves as our outdoor classroom and the backdrop for everything we do. And it’s all thanks to volunteers like you! 

We’ll be back in our Native Food Forest this week, battling those wild weeds and hopefully laying down some fresh mulch. This garden celebrates its One Year Birthday next week and it’s already grown so much!

No prior knowledge or skills needed. Whether you’re totally new to gardening or have many years of experience this workday is for you! The ability to kneel and use hand tools is recommended but not required. Please bring gloves if you have them and a water bottle. Wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you’re comfortable getting dirty. All other tools and materials will be provided.

(Looking for something a little less strenuous or interested in growing native plants from seed? Check out our propagation workday—same time, same place.)
