Sunday: Community Garden Tour

We will be showcased this Sunday Austin's 2nd Annual Community Garden Tour! Please come check us out.

Here is more information about the event from Sustainable Food Center's Website: www.sustainablefoodcenter.org:

Please join the Coalition of Austin Community Gardens and Sustainable Food Center in celebrating the growing number of community gardens in our city at the Second Annual Austin Community Garden Tour, to take place May 1st from 10am - 4pm. The Community Garden Tour is a free, open house-style tour providing the opportunity to visit each of these unique places, talk to the gardeners there, learn how to get involved, and maybe even... get inspired to start your own. We hope you’ll join us in celebration of these community spaces for locally grown (and self-grown!) food in Austin. A downloadable/printable map of participating community gardens and additional details will be available here soon: http://communitygardensaustin.org/?page_id=605. Click here to RSVP via Facebook!

We’ll close out the tour with a Panel and Potluck from 6 - 8:30 pm at 5604 Manor (home of the Workers Defense Project, the Third Coast Workers for Cooperation, and Third Coast Activist Resource Center). Speakers will share information about the current landscape of community gardening in Austin, the work they are doing to make Austin a more community garden-friendly city, and what you can do to get involved. Bring a dish made with locally grown food and join in the celebration! Space is limited, so if you’d like to attend the Panel and Potluck, please RSVP to that event invitation here (which is separate from the RSVP for the garden tour)!
