In addition to 40 raised beds, Hansberry Garden has a lot of lovely green space that members hold in common and share with the community at public events. This common space is maintained entirely by volunteers. Garden members do some of the work individually, and we also meet once a month to take on special projects and routine tasks. There are tasks suitable for those who can handle heavy lifting, but also tasks that don’t require a strong back. Neighbors and friends are welcome to lend a hand at these Tend the Garden Days — feel free to stop by! In 2019, we’ll be tending the Garden together on the second Saturday of every month (except for the Second Saturday of May, which is the date of our annual plant sale; May’s date will be the first Saturday of the month). The scheduled dates:
- Saturday, April 13
- Saturday, May4
- Saturday, June 8
- Saturday, July 13
- Saturday, Aug. 10
- Saturday, Sept. 14
- Saturday, Oct. 12
