July Work Day: Wed 7/15 5:30-7 PM!

Join the crew on Wednesday July 15 from 5:30-7 pm* for our annual evening work day of the season! We’ll be painting new signs, keeping up with our plant care, and of course, weeding. Always, always weeding. This mid-week work day is a great chance for our neighbors who can’t make the usual weekend events to stop by and share in the farm fun. Drinks (yes, drinks 😉 and snacks provided.

Can’t make it this time? Don’t worry! We’ll have plenty more work days this season. Keep an eye here or on our social pages for more info and reach out to athenscommunityfarm[at]gmail.com with any questions!
