Volunteer Opportunities 🎈🎈🎈We’re asking for volunteers on:

* Sunday, August 23, 3:00 to 5:00 PM
* Monday, August 24, 3:00 to 5:00 PM
* Tuesday, August 25, 8:30 AM to Noon
* Thursday, August 27, 8:30 AM to Noon
* Saturday, August 29, 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM β€” to be followed by a free educational class at 11:30 AM on β€œSoil Health: Take the Soil Your Un**es Challenge.”

Our primary focus this week will be planting as many of our cold weather seedlings as possible, including cabbage, kale, collards, cauliflower and brussels sprouts. Our volunteers made a good start this past Saturday, BUT there are lots more of these babies that need to get in the ground.

Your help in planting these seedlings will make a REAL difference. They will contribute many thousands of pounds of nutrition to those who need them most in our community.

If you are able to volunteer this week, please let us know by emailing us at [email protected] or texting us at 703-606-0446.

With Gratitude
