What We’re Doing

Community Garden Volunteers

Community Garden Volunteers

Join us each Thursday at the Community Garden at the Monterey Adult School in Seaside, 1295 LaSalle Avenue, from 3 pm to 5 pm.

Volunteers will take part in planting natives, watering, weeding, creating “rain sponges” to capture, spread, and sink the rain.  Be sure to check in at the front office before you head to the garden.   🏡👩🏼‍🌾🌿
