It's Tuesday and weather is gorgeous which means volunteers will be watering, w**ding, and harvesting at Bethany Community Gardens tonight after 4:30.
Haven't joined us before? We were all new once!
Don't know what is a w**d vs. a crop, we'll teach you!
Afraid you won't know anyone? You won't be able to say that again!
So many smiling faces welcoming you!
Come when you can, leave when you must.

Garlic was planted in the Fall and harvested Saturday . Craig, Garlic Team Lead, sent us this shot of the harvest enjoying its drying rack where it will spend a few weeks curing so it will store longer. Volunteers also enjoyed some smaller heads to take home at harvest!
Share in the bounty, Volunteers needed Tuesday 4:30-7ish to w**d, water and harvest.

Great article with a little background on Bethany Community Gardens if you want to learn more about us!

What was once unused church land in Indianapolis is now a 10,000-square-foot community garden producing fresh food and stronger neighborhood ties.

At Bethany Lutheran Church, volunteers, neighbors, and partners are working together to grow vegetables, address food insecurity, and build lasting relationships rooted in service and shared purpose.
