SUMMARY:Special Kick-Off Event: Happy Hour in the Garden
DESCRIPTION:School is out\, but gardens are still growing! So we’re throwing an extra special Happy Hour in the Garden to kick off our summer fundraising campaign. It’s time to replenish our School Garden Grant fund so that MORE local kids can get outside and reap the benefits of learning in a garden. Our goal is to raise $7\,500 from donors by July 27th. \nVolunteer for an hour or two (fun\, easy gardening tasks)\, and we’ll provide cold beverages from Boneyard Beer & Caboost Kombucha\, snacks courtesy of Whole Foods Market\, and live music from Amy Bathen. Denise and other local educators will be in the garden to share success stories of school gardens throughout the region\, and what we have planned for the future. \nShow your support for garden-based learning throughout Central Oregon! Learn more here. \n*Happy Hour in the Garden is every Tuesday from 4-6 pm\, May through August. Each week\, volunteers drop in and help maintain the garden through weekly tasks and/or special projects. No experience necessary\, families welcome.
