Monday April 21st 3-5pm & Sunday April 27th 3-5pm

Location: Community Dye Garden behind My Muses Card Shop, before the train tracks

Join us for our first two volunteer planting days to cultivate the tender beginnings of the Community Dye Garden! We received a Carrboro Green Neighborhoods grant to create a beautiful garden full of plants who can be used for natural dyeing and making pigments for arts, crafts, and connecting more deeply with the earth's natural beauty. 

These two work days will be focused on planting seeds and seedlings, decorating pots, and laying the groundwork for our spring garden. No gardening experience necessary, but all wisdom and vision is welcome! We look forward to co- creating this garden together to share in the beauty and wonder of growing color.

Community work days will happen seasonally to attend to the needs of the garden & organized by Lara Struckman. Please reach out to [email protected] with any questions!
