Cesar Chavez Day of Service at the PS7 Garden




Spring is here! In honor of the Cesar Chavez holiday, we're hosting another day of service at PS7 on Monday March 30. Our goals for that day are:

1.) Pull weeds.
2.) Section off areas for planting.
3.) Amend the soil and till it to prepare for planting.
4.) Grade the area to improve drainage (See pictures from February storms below).

Once again, Hands On Sacramento is helping us organize the day of service. Click the link below to register to volunteer.

As everyone knows, budgets are very tight right now. Nevertheless, we are committed to making this project happen. McDonald's and Taco Bell aren't taking a break from marketing their processed fast food to our students, so I guess we have to find a way to make it happen. We have been applying for grants and we'll be phasing in the garden as we are able to raise funds.
