SUMMARY:MLK Day of Service - Morning
DESCRIPTION:Volunteers will assist our Urban Farm team to create these seed packets by placing seeds into packages and clearly labelling each. Seed-saving has a long and rich history\, and we’re proud to take a small part in this tradition and pass on our seeds to others in the community to grow. Hot chocolate and light snacks will be provided. \nEach growing season\, the Urban Farm gives away hundreds of seed packets at its welcome table during the farm’s weekend Open Hours. Seed packets are extremely popular with our visitors — so much so that it is hard to keep the table stocked. \nWe maintain a wide range of seeds for giveaway! At any given time\, you might find rice\, lotus\, carrot\, or lettuce seeds in our library. Some of the seeds we share with the public are extra seeds that we purchased and no longer use. Others are seeds that we save ourselves from the plants growing on the Urban Farm. \nRegistration is required here. Please arrive early to sign in. \nLocation: East Entrance of Icahn Stadium \nFor inquiries about accessibility\, to request an accommodation\, or for event information\, please email publicprograms@randallsisland.org.
