Is your troop or service unit looking for a take action project in the Memphis area? Drake and Zeke, radio personalities from WXMX 98.1 "The Max", are looking for volunteers to be responsible for a community garden in the Shelby Farms area. This is a year-long commitment and the troop or service unit would be asked to schedule volunteers, weed, organize and harvest vegetables which will be donated to the Memphis Food Bank. Shelby Farms Park Conservancy will assist the troop or service unit in getting additional volunteers and spreading the word about the program.Any troop interested should have an adult who knows a little something about gardening, although the plan is to bring in a professional to consult, providing the girls with a great learning opportunity! And as an added bonus, Drake and Zeke will talk frequently on the radio about the garden and those who are helping!
If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact Raleigh Walker at 800.727.8104, or raleigh.walker@girlscoutshs.org
