About this Event

Hopkins Gardens are in the courtyard of a public apartment complex. Do you live near Capitol Hill? This is the activity for you!

We'll be planting, harvesting and weeding every Thursday. We give away the vegetables, herbs and flowers we pick the next day at Food and Farm Fridays at THEARC. This is a great opportunity to help people living in food apartheid to take home fresh, life-giving vegetables! No experience is necessary--learn to grow your own food while you volunteer.

Timing can shift a little week-to-week, so it's always helpful to ping us before you show to make sure we'll be ready when you arrive.

Children accompanied by a parent or guardian are welcome.
