Help build a community garden for Bruin Community Pantry produce

Keep celebrating Earth Day and God’s creation with two service opportunities this week. Last week a small but mighty volunteer crew from George Fox helped remove sod from the site of a new community garden. Come help us finish clearing the area, plant laurel at the perimeter, and build garden beds this week!

Any help is much appreciated. The address is 501 Mission Drive (Newberg Peace Garden). The sooner beds are built, the sooner produce can start to be grown, which will benefit people in our community who use the Bruin Community Pantry.

Dates:

  • Thursday, April 24, 3:30 to 6 p.m.
  • Saturday, April 26, 9 a.m. to noon

Elective chapel credit is available, and people seeking volunteer hours for another program are more than welcome to get them with us.

Contact Holly Shelton at hshelton@georgefox.edu if you have questions.
