Join us as we partner with Missouri Organic Recycling and others for the Healthy Soil Field Day, a volunteer & educational event on 3/29/2024 from 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm. Healthy Soil Field Day will be at Juniper Gardens Training Farm 100 Richmond Ave, Kansas City, KS 66101.
Dig in and get dirty helping us tackle our compost pile and get the farm ready for spring! Work session will be followed by a happy hour to rest, refresh, and ground ourselves. Cheers to biodiversity!
We’ll spend the afternoon activating our compost pile and getting it into shape with the help of our friends from Missouri Organic Recycling, along with some other much needed spring cleanup and prep opportunities at Juniper Gardens Training Farm!
This event is free, but Please Register for Healthy Soil Field Day!
