Diggin’ it With GOFM
Donation-Based Community Workshops
Tired of the same old trowel and error routine? Break free with our “Diggin’ with GOFM” Donation-Based Community Workshops that’ll cover everything from planting essentials to gardening techniques centered around growing your green thumb.
Stick around after the workshop to get some more hands-on experience by helping out with important tasks in the gardens with the team that keeps all of our 11 beds thriving. You can apply what you’ve learned, share experiences, and hang with like-minded individuals.
These workshops are open to all ages. Locations rotate to see the different spaces. Pay what you can & cultivate not just plants, but lasting friendships and a greener, more sustainable future.
