When: Saturday, February 18th 2012 – from 0900 to 1200.
Where: 2800 Center Drive, DuPont WA 98327
Why: IDCG supports local foodbanks by growing organic healthy food. In 2011 we harvested 4,700 pounds of produce, which 4,200 was donated to foodbanks in Lakewood, Steilacoom and Olympia.
For the service members: Last year one JBLM service member earned their Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal by working in the garden on build days, weeding and growing produce for the community. Your hours of service can be recorded and submitted to your chain of command for the same purpose.
For teenagers who need community service hours for graduation, this is a great opportunity to earn some hours. There will be more opportunities in the future for weeding and building. Contact the email below for details.
For attendance please bring: your tools such as wheelbarrows, shovels, rakes, and battery-powered driver-drills.
