Please join YAYA along with the Fellsmere Community to work in the community garden on Saturday, March 31st!
The community garden project aims to provide an opportunity for members of the Orlando community to work with and develop a relationship with members of the Farm Worker Association of Florida in Fellsmere. We do so by creating spaces for open dialogue, story sharing, and an opportunity to exchange skills and knowledge. Join us for a day of education, community building and fun!
On this day we will garden, eat delicious food and even play soccer!
