Our Community Building & Organizing team welcomed 2nd graders from Lincoln Bassett School to the community garden for a hands-on day of learning and exploring. Students harvested and tasted fresh vegetables, spread mulch, learned how to safely use gardening tools, and discovered the important roles that composting plays in gardening 🐝🪱

It was a fun day of curiosity, teamwork, and connecting with nature right in our community! 🌿

The HomeOwnership Center recently hosted an estate planning workshop to help community members learn how they can protect their homes and assets and create generational wealth.

Attendees learned about wills and trusts, the probate process, what happens to your home and other assets if you pass away without a will, and the importance of having an estate plan in place.

A special thank you to Attorney Sallie Blackman for sharing her expertise and helping our community better understand the estate planning process!

Stay tuned for more educational opportunities from the HomeOwnership Center 🏠
