Spring Work Day at the Kingston YMCA Farm Project
Wednesday, April 17, 2019
10:00 am – 3:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
Please join Bard Farm, the Kingston YMCA Farm Project, and BARK (Beautifying and Restoring Kingston) youth crew to help clean up the area around the YMCA farm. We will focus on Japanese knotweed and brush removal, as well as wetland and trash cleanup.The Kingston YMCA Farm Project is an urban, educational farm located in midtown Kingston. Its mission is to educate, nourish, and connect the community with their urban farm. The project focuses on four main areas: community food production, community food access, farm-based education, and youth development!
We will have two 13-passenger Bard shuttles leaving for the event, one at 9:30 and one at 12:30. Volunteers will meet in front of Kappa house. Our 9:30 shuttle will bring volunteers back to campus by 12:30 and our 12:30 shuttle will bring volunteers back to campus by 3:30.
If you wish to drive yourself, the farm is located at the intersection of Susan and Summer Streets. Park at the YMCA and walk past River Radiology. Please help out for as much or as little time as you can spare.
