Fall Day of Service

Fall Day of Service 

Fall Day of Service is a large-scale event that brings together students, staff, alumni, and community members to contribute to Potawot Community Food Garden's annual "Day of Caring." 

Volunteers engage in a variety of outside gardening projects which may include harvesting strawberries, orchard care, weeding, or tending the native herb garden. 

The Potawot Community Food Garden is part of United Indian Health Services (UIHS) and volunteers support garden projects that provide healthy food access to UIHS clients.
