About Community Garden Group - Edgewood Village

Welcome to our Edgewood Village Community Gardens Group! Help fight us fight poverty and hunger right here in East Lansing by helping our families to become self-sufficient and to develop healthier food alternatives in their local community. Our community garden will increase accessibility to fresh produce and to teach residents how to be self-reliant by creating a sustainable garden in an urban setting. Here we will regularly post our Garden workdays. Our gardens include a community garden with shared plots, Peace-Thyme Butterfly Garden and hoop house. Volunteer duties can include, depending on the season:
• Assisting in prepping garden beds for planting
• Planting flower seeds and transplants in the Gardens.
• Watering plants when needed, weeding when needed
• Filling water barrels, if empty and clean-up and Paint garden fence and other maintenance.
Volunteers must fill out and past a criminal background form.
Below we will post all the upcoming garden days. Please sign up for the days you can make it. Thank you and look forward to seeing you at Edgewood Village!
