YOUTH GARDEN PROJECT

Youth Garden Project...
Where Corvallis Grows

YGP relies on a large pool of volunteers to accomplish many garden tasks necessary to maintain a productive garden year-round. YGP, during the growing season (Feb-Nov), has work parties from 10 - 2 at the Youth Garden. During the heat of summer, YGP needs volunteers help to water regularly or weed (take your gardening pick!).

For more information on how you can help, please contact Pami at (541) 753-9211 or via email to ygp<at>corvallisenvironmentalcenter.org
