Food Garden for St. James – volunteer opportunity

Hello from the First Hill Association! “I thought you or someone you know might be interested in this volunteer opportunity to support the creation of a food garden at Terry and Madison, which will provide fresh food for use at St. James Cathedral’s Cathedral Kitchen, which serves early-evening meals to homeless and low-income people.

The volunteer event is Wednesday July 18th at 12pm, and will involve moderate labor to create the raised beds and fill them with soil. The contact for this opportunity is Dylan Hogan, who can be reached via email at dhogan@stjames-cathedral.org or via phone at (206) 382-4235. Feel free and encouraged to spread this opportunity around in your networks!

Mr Hogan informs us: On Wednesday, July 18th, at 12pm, we are getting a shipment of soil brought in so that we can begin making raised planting beds for the Garden. The folks in charge of the Garden and I are doing our best to recruit as many volunteers as possible to help get everything in place. It will be a day of shoveling, moving wheelbarrows, and the like. Is there a way that you could get the word out to the folks in FHIA—an email, a post on the website…? It should be a lot of fun, and we would all be very grateful!

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me by email here (dhogan@stjames-cathedral.org) or by phone at (206) 382-4235 with any questions or concerns.”
