Volunteers are needed on Saturday, Oct. 4, from 10 a.m.–1 p.m. for a work party at the Daisy Sonju Community Garden (map below).
“Drop in anytime—whether you can give 30 minutes or stay the whole morning, every bit helps,” organizers said.
Tasks include clearing weeds, cleaning up the paths and trails, and spreading bark mulch to begin the long-term process of restoring this special space.
Some tools will be available, but please bring gloves and your own tools if you can.
Kids are welcome, too!
This is the first step toward reintroducing the garden to the community and creating a welcoming place where people can learn, experience nature, and get their hands dirty.
“Stop by to lend a hand or simply to see what the garden is all about!”
Daisy Sonju Community Garden is located at 24728 16th Ave S., Des Moines:
