Volunteers Dig the Food Bank’s Urban Demonstration Garden

By Abbie Steiner April 24, 2013

This April, we broke ground in two of the main spaces of the Capital Area Food Bank’s Urban Demonstration Garden.
We could not have done it without the support of our volunteers from St. Michael’s College Alumni, George Washington University’s TKE Fraternity, George Washington University Community Building Community Organization, students from Georgetown University, individual volunteers and CAFB Garden Leaders.
In less than eight hours, volunteers removed more than 5,000 square feet of sod and prepared more than 1,200 feet of lumber for wooden raised garden beds.
We are excited to continue developing the food bank garden space. Join us and volunteer at a future garden dig.
