Come join us at the Keene Family YMCA as we participate in garden activities, network with area gardeners, and think about how to support learning in gardens! Tuesday’s event is a part of the learning series for our garden sites, but we are excited to be able to open this one up to the public. We will start at 6:30pm and end at 9:00pm, wrapping up the evening with an ice cream social.

The evening will feature demos and hands-on activities by UNH Cooperative Extension educators, Jess Skinner of ReRootEd, and Monica Pless of Stonewall Farm and Antioch University New England (AUNE).  Also highlighted will be educators from Early Sprouts, Symonds School, and AUNE.   The event was made possible by the AUNE Student Activity Fund with ongoing support from the Rashti Foundation.

We look forward to seeing you there! If you aren’t able to come, please pass…
