Join us in the garden at Urban Art Retreat this summer, and develop your gardening skills!

On Saturdays from 1-4p.m., our master gardener will supervise folks in our own Florence Garden to show people how to do the best gardening! You don't want to miss this. Whether you already have skills, or would like to improve your skills, or have no skills at all- consider volunteering in our garden this summer.

We have spots for you to join us mid May 2024 to have a good time. Please RSVP for a spot to contribute to a non-profit, help a garden, and learn and share gardening tips! We have the gloves and tools.

Mission Statement
