(Fairfield) Volunteer: Garden Workday

March 15 @ 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm

Friday, March 15: Removing crabgrass; planting microclover and spring annuals at Armijo High School Garden (824 Washington Street, Fairfield).

Register here

Join us on March 15 from 3:30pm-5:30pm to support the Armijo garden in planting new trees, shrubs, and companion plants! This is a great opportunity to learn about permaculture practices, such as companion planting and the ins and outs of tree guilds, and the benefits of hedgerows in gardens where wind can be strong.

This public, hands-on installation workshop will be held to plant a few new fruit trees, add one new guild, and replace 2 wind-blocking shrubs. Join us the week before, on March 8, to support in treating their crabgrass and planting Spring annuals! Sign up for that date here.

This project is in partnership with Armijo High School and the Armijo Jardin de la Esperanza.
