Linda Derry, a youth from Springfield Gardens will lead a community service project at The Garden Of Resilience on April 17, 2021. Derry was awarded a grant from the Sodexo Stop Hunger Foundation through Youth Service America (YSA). The grant will support Derry in leading a community service project that addresses the issue of food insecurity.
In partnership with Derry, Moms Who Care Inc. and Black Village Arts will provide additional activities addressing the issues of environmental justice and the possibilities for recycled art. The community event will follow CDC guidelines and will require all participants to social distance and wear face coverings while in the space.
Participants are also encouraged to bring their vegan food scraps (no meat/dairy) to the garden for composting.
The Garden Of Resilience has a limit of 35 people in the space to follow social distance. If you are interested in attending you can register via Eventbrite at:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/spring-clean-up-seed-distribution-tickets-147923947509
