Hosted By:   International Rescue Committee in Phoenix, in partnership with the Mayor's office and Keep Phoenix Beautiful

Main invitation image

Come help us celebrate the fall planting season at our New Roots Garden with a day of food, fun and farm work!

There will be sign painting, path building, tool assembly, construction, field work, composting and more in our New Roots Garden.

We'll have farm fresh produce and hot bread made onsite.  Come find out more about Gila Farm Cooperative, the International Rescue Committee, eating locally and good nutrition.

The University of Arizona, AZ Science Center, Whole Foods, Petsmart and other community partners will be on site, as well as food trucks with yummy breakfast burritos.  

This is a potluck event, but since the food is already taken care of, we're asking that you bring something from our list below.  Any of these items, big or small, will help grow our New Roots in Phoenix.  

Sign-in begins at 7:30am. Come as soon as you are able and stay as long as you'd like. The event concludes at 12pm.

Feel free to forward this invite or RSVP for friends and family.
