*CANCELED* Elieen's Place Orchard Day!
** UPDATE **
Due to the expected extreme cold snap on Sunday morning, we are canceling this Orchard volunteer opportunity and will reschedule for a day TBD.
We were SO excited to see everyone and work in the orchard, but we sadly cannot do some of this work to the fruit trees in those temps; and, it's probably just a little too uncomfortable for our noses :p
Please stay tuned for a reschedule date!
““““““““
We’re looking for volunteers to lend a hand in the orchard at Eileen’s Place. Come out and help us prune, weed, mulch, fertilize, and aerate to keep the trees healthy and productive while supporting our mission to fight hunger in the community.
No experience needed. Bring your energy, gloves, and willingness to get a little dirty for a great cause.
Let’s grow food together!
Eileen's Place offers supportive housing for families in Kansas City.
