Event Navigation
JOIN US IN THE GARDEN At CHAPMAN ELEMENTARY
“Make it a day ON . . . Not a day off”
It is time to take advantage of a day of service to make the Alphabet Garden a welcoming entrance on the face of Chapman School and to spruce up the Edible Garden in preparation for spring!
Chapman Elementary school is a public K-5 school in Portland Public Schools. Located in the northwest region if the city, Chapman serves one of the most economically diverse communities in the city. Every one of the over 600 students at Chapman visit the volunteer-run garden in the fall and in the spring. Together with their classmates they plant, care for and harvest fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, blueberries, kale, beans and peas. They learn about science, health and teamwork through hands-on activities in an outdoor classroom. The garden is also open during recess for students seeking a queiter space.
Join us as we prune, weed, pick up litter, prepare beds for spring planting, repair the fence, care for the tool shed, and more.
