BLI: Community Service with Project Grow

Hi BLI members! We have an exciting volunteer opportunity where we get to do some old-fashioned gardening work with Project Grow at the County Farm garden site! We will be working outdoors, and you can expect to:

-Remove old fencing

-Dig up plant material

-General sprucing up the area

Please be prepared to get the clothes you’re wearing to get dirty, and bring a water bottle to stay hydrated!

The work we do will serve the community by creating a beautiful scenery for the spring to come!
We'll have coffee, snacks and work gloves at the site and LUNCH will be provided after.

We will be meeting at the County Farm garden site (2230 Platt Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48104) by 10AM on April 9th. 

The address is 2230 Platt Road for parking. Once parked, follow the pathway under the arch to the playground. Once at the playground, you will see a large pavilion with seating ahead on your left. We'll meet at the sheds on the far side of the playground.

Transportation Options: 

• Take a bus: The “4” bus takes you very close to the site - the drop-off is at Washtenaw + Platt Rd.
• Carpool: Let us know if you can drive or need a ride by emailing blievents@umich.edu. We will meet up at Weiser Hall at 9:20 am for carpooling.
