Community Opportunities
Building a Better Burlington has a 4000+ square foot of garden (behind of United Methodist Church, 857 W State St, Burlington, WI 53105) to provide fresh organic produce to the Love Inc food pantry. They are seeking volunteers to weed (If it is green and inside the "fenced in" area it is a weed. Do not pull anything from the wooden raised bed boxes outside the fence. Those are rented boxes and some do have perennials.). Stop by anytime, just maintain social distance from other gardeners.
Dispose of the weeds on the east end of the greater garden area. Under the trees, there are piles of old weeds along the edge of the grass. Please place what you pull there. Questions? Call Sue at 262-951-6650.
