Spring is around the corner and we’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Volunteer Day at Life Lab’s beautiful Garden Classroom on Saturday, March 22nd, from 09:30 AM to 12:00 PM (Rain cancels).

This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with nature, lend a helping hand, and meet fellow community members. Whether you're an experienced gardener or simply excited to support our mission of inspiring the young ones through garden-based learning, there’s a task for everyone! Kids are welcome to join too.

What to Expect:

Hands-on projects such as planting, weeding, and general garden maintenance
A chance to learn new skills and enjoy the fresh outdoors
Some goodies to take home: fruit, plant cuttings, seeds :)

What to Bring:

Comfortable clothing you don't mind getting dirty (we recommend layers) and closed toe shoes
A water bottle (you can refill at the garden)
We will provide some snacks but feel free to bring extra if you might need more fuel

Parking and Directions:
Please park for free in Lot 116. Additional parking is also available at Lot 115 and Lot 117A on the UC Santa Cruz campus. It is a ~5 minute walk to the Garden.

After parking, cross Coolidge Drive and follow the sidewalk straight to the intersection of the stop sign, bike path, and dirt road. From there, follow the dirt road to the stairs and gate that lead to the Garden Classroom.

Please confirm your assistance here! Feel free to bring friends and family – the more, the merrier! If you have questions please contact me at daniela@lifelab.org.

Let's get together to celebrate the arrival of spring and to nurture a space that inspires growth, learning, and community :)

We hope to see you in the garden!
