Join the Office of Community Enrichment’s gardeners on Earth Day as we begin our garden and plant seeds! We will let them grow into seedlings in our office, and schedule some planting days when they are ready. No experience needed.

 

We are also collecting supplies for the garden! What we are collecting:

- soil
- tools for container gardening
- seed starting paper cups, egg cartons
- seeds - herbs and flowers (we are not allowed to grow vegetables/fruit, but herbs and flowers are allowed!)
- plant pot furniture - stands, sturdy little tables
 

Where to drop off: Office of Community Enrichment - 1800 Sherman Ave. Suite 5-200 (on the 5th floor). Our office is open Monday through Thursday. Email community-enrichment@northwestern.edu for questions or to coordinate a different handoff.
