Walnut Way Conservation Core

I saw a call for volunteers for this lesser-​known non-​profit and it sounded like a great organization to lend a hand for. Check-​in was well organized and they broke people into groups doing different types of cleanup. Each group was handled by a team of 20-​something volunteers that were working on education in public service. I ended up doing some brush cleanup and moving huge piles of logs on one of the neighboring lots on 17^th. Free boot camp! Of primary interest to me is their Gardens to Market program — they look to have quite a few garden plots spread out on the block which they use to sell produce to their neighbors at local markets. If you’re looking to volunteer some time, this is definitely a worthy group, I’ll certainly be back.
