Common Good City Farm and the RiverSmart Schools Program are recruiting interested and committed people to join the RiverSmart Volunteer Maintenance Program. If you're interested in improving your urban greening skills or in hands-on gardening opportunities in your community, this is the perfect program for you.
Sign-up to be a RiverSmart Volunteer, get matched with a RiverSmart school and teacher, and receive a free 16-hour hands-on training in urban greening and gardening skills. Volunteers are asked to contribute three-four hours a month, for a year, at a RiverSmart School, helping with establishing gardens and other schoolyard greening projects.
The training, Urban Schoolyard Greening, will be held November 12th 4-8pm, 14th, 9-5pm and 17th 4-8pm.
RiverSmart Schools is a program of DC Department of Environment. If you are a teacher and want to enroll in this program please contact Lindsay Ruel at lindsay.reul@dc.gov.
We have minimal but recurrent expenses that we must cover. Your donation of $2 month, less than the cost of a latte, would keep us afloat. Consider the easy option of annual donation of $25 today.
