Community, connection, and a little time with the goats made for a wonderful day at Eden’s Forest Garden!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our season opener Volunteer Saturday event, held in collaboration with The Honeycomb Project.

Volunteers spent the day helping prepare the garden for a successful growing season by clearing weeds, building and refreshing planting beds, planting and watering, and maintaining garden and nature play areas. Along the way, they learned about urban farming, pollinators, composting, and community food access—and even had the chance to meet, play with, and feed the garden’s goats!

We’re grateful to The Honeycomb Project and all of the volunteers who generously gave their time and energy to support this important community space.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Saturday at Veterans Peace Garden to help clean up the community and refresh the garden. With at least 20 volunteers lending a hand, we collected 7.5 bags of trash, weeded, distributed mulch, and pruned throughout the garden.

Thank you as well to our co-hosts, Cleanup Club Chicago, for partnering with us and supporting this community effort.

We truly appreciate everyone’s hard work, time, and dedication to keeping our space beautiful for all.
