There are a number of events that the CNMG either hosts or participates in within a year. Some of these happen every year while others happen only once. Below is a description of these events starting with upcoming events and ended with a log of events from previous years.
Events
Volunteering
There is volunteering every Saturday from 10-2 at the CNMG. Any one can come for whatever amount of time they are available. Tasks vary weekly but can involve watering, weeding, planting, harvesting, and much more! No prior gardening experience required, CNMG is a garden focused on education, not production.
STEM To STEAM, It’s All in the Garden
There are two versions of this science camp. A week long event during the summer and a small day camp during the spring. Both camps provide breakfast, lunch, educational activities, and more to students participating. There is a wide age range associated with the camp (k-12) so there are a wide variety of activities offered. Students will have the opportunity to learn about solar power, gardening, farming, chemistry, mathematics, and more. This camp is free.
Full Camp: dates and times
Mini Camp: April 1st 2023 10am-2pm
Email (EMAIL) with any questions.
Farmers Market
There is a farmers market held every Wednesday at (TIME). The CNMG partners with Richland Gro-Op to sell their produce (alongside produce from the garden) for $1 per pound. The market takes place just outside of the garden and is open to anyone. Volunteers are often available during this time to answer questions about the garden or highlight key components of the CNMG.
