A pop-up petting zoo, in your own backyard. Come chill with the goats, and other surprise animal guests. Graciously hosted by our local farmer friend Novian in the “nature preserve” parcel across the alley from the Garden.

Plus the usual — Come get your hands in the soil with our partners at Farm the District, every Saturday throughout the growing season. Whether you’re a first-timer or returning veteran, all are needed to help tend to our shared backyard.

There’s plenty of projects to keep all hands busy, including weeding, watering, composting, repairing, crafting, and ongoing side projects. Find a partner and choose your own adventure. And don’t forget to take home your share of the communal harvest.

As always, we’ll also be giving an orientation tour for newcomers. Welcome neighbors!
