Gather with us to learn about permaculture by caring for our Edible Forest Garden! After engaging with the plants living in the EFG, we will enjoy some jams and preserves made from some native and invasive plants growing here at Spring Valley. All are welcome! Transportation is available through Community Service Days. Sign up for the bus at: https://uconntact.uconn.edu/organization/cocsd. Please remember to dress for the outdoors, including warm and water-durable shoes! Please contact Jessica.larkin-wells@uconn.edu with any questions.
