Please join us for a Garden Workday at Mala?ai! We will be installing roofing on our old chicken coop, turning it into storage. We are also installing irrigation in some of the perimeter berms, hauling some items to the dump, and generally freshening up the garden. We could use some volunteer help with this as we get ready for summer. Please bring a dish to share for a potluck lunch to follow and your own utensils to make it "green." No need to bring garden tools or equipment, but bring your raincoat and water bottle. If you have any questions, please contact our Garden Leader, Holly Sargeant-Green, at hols.green@gmail.com. Mahalo for making time to volunteer at our mala!
