We’d love your help planting fruit trees and native plants at Takoma Park Elementary School as we build the next phase of the school’s food forest and outdoor classroom. It has taken us five years to get here - with many stops and starts along the way - so this is also a chance to celebrate the patience and perseverance of all the people who have had a hand in making this happen.
We want to get the fruit trees in the ground this fall and then we’ll add more shrubs, herbs and wildflowers in the spring along with some more raised beds.
Please RSVP below so we have a sense of numbers. And if you’d like to donate to support our efforts at TPES, please visit this page.
