Teams of volunteers covered the community on the Great Rivers United Way Day of Caring. We were lucky enough to have two hard working groups. Volunteers from Vendi and the School District of La Crosse shared their time, talent and energy with us. The work they completed alongside our amazing staff and interns was unbelievable! Thank you, Great Rivers United Way, for organizing this day of giving back to the community. Thank you, volunteers, for helping to further our mission of connecting youth to healthy food and nature. If you want to help us make sure the gardens are thriving when students return this fall there is still time to volunteer.
