Our next Garden Workday at EPACS will be held Saturday, March 27th, from 9 AM – Noon. 

Please join us at the EPACS garden on March 27th, from 9AM until Noon, for a morning of spring garden tasks.  Enjoy tending vegetables, pull out spent crops, weed, mulch, seed, turn beds and compost, plant, prepare the chicken coop for new chickens and help keep the garden going strong through the winter. Please dress in layers and closed-toed shoes and apply sunscreen!

RAIN: If it is raining, please stay home, warm, and cozy!

LOCATION: The Collective Roots garden located at East Palo Alto Charter School, 1286 Runnymede Street, East Palo Alto. Click here for a Google Map to this location. 

MORE INFORMATION: Our monthly workdays are usually held on the 4th Saturday of every month from 8 or 9 AM -12 PM (unless otherwise noted.) Please call us in advance to confirm date, time, and location.

These events allow Collective Roots to keep our school gardens in good shape and provide opportunities for larger scale projects to be accomplished. Teams of participants are provided with projects that are completed in one half day. Volunteers come from the schools we serve, East Palo Alto community, and surrounding communities.

Garden work day team captains are also needed and require additional commitments of time for training and preparation prior to the actual work day event. This is a great opportunity to serve one-time-only, or on a year round basis.

Can be a once only or an ongoing commitment!

Team Captains need to be available in advance of garden work days for training and preparation.

If you have any questions about this event, please email Eron Sandler by clicking here or by calling (650) 324-2769.
