Everyone is welcome to sign up for these shifts and trainings, but if you email stephen@urbanriv.org to let him know you'd like to join the Garden Group, you'll get an email each time a new shift is added.
Thursday May 21st at 5:30 to 7:30 - Wild Mile - We are still deciding if this will be a one-off shift to catch up on spring weeds, or if there will be shifts reliably Thursday evenings.
Saturday May 23rd at 11AM - Wild Mile - This may become a regular shift time even though it overlaps with other volunteer maintenance work.
Likely starting in June - Friday maintenance shifts at Bubbly Creek - We will be down at Bubbly Creek to provide free community kayaking opportunities on Friday afternoons/evenings. We are looking at holding garden maintenance shifts during at least some of those Fridays.
We'll announce River Park garden maintenance shifts as soon as we can, but they'll likely be less regular, and just occur whenever the weather and field trip schedules line up best.
Whenever You'd Like - Weeding - If you've been to at least one session of weeding and feel comfortable out on the gardens, you can simply pick a time that works for you and do some additional weeding on your own. All you need to do is let Stephen know with a day or two heads-up (either via Slack, WhatsApp, or email (stephen@urbanriv.org)), check in with us as you are heading out, always wear a life vest, and be careful out there. If you give enough of a heads-up and would like company, we could probably make whatever time you'll be out there into a garden shift and see if other volunteers would like to join.
