Tierra Linda & Mariposa Initial Installation Work Day

Join EGC as we prepare multiple garden-centered outdoor classrooms at Tierra Linda Middle School and Mariposa Upper Elementary School.

Volunteers should meet at the Tierra Linda front office, and will be split into smaller teams upon arrival.  Please bring a mask, work gloves, and a water bottle.  If you have a shovel and/or a power drill, bring that along as well!

Tasks may include:

• Building whiteboards, tables, stools, benches and raised garden beds;
• Varnishing tables and benches;
• Digging irrigation trenches and holes for trees/plants;
• Planting trees, shrubs and seasonal vegetables;
• General plant care (pruning, fertilizing, mulching);
• General campus clean up.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we ask that all volunteers observe the following guidelines:

• All volunteers - including children - must wear masks at all times.  Please bring your own masks, gloves, and water bottles.

• To assure compliance with social-distancing and sanitation requirements, all volunteers for this event must be able to comply at all times with social-distancing and mask requirements.

• If you have experienced ANY symptoms of illness in the last 14 days, or if you have had contact with anyone experiencing these symptoms within the last 14 days, please do NOT attend any EGC work event.  Symptoms include, but are not limited to, chills, fever, fatigue, sore throat, muscle soreness, loss of sense of smell, vomiting, abdominal pain, shortness of breath, and/or coughing.

• If within the last 14 days you have come into close contact with anyone who has since tested positive for COVID-19, please do NOT attend any EGC work event prior to obtaining two negative COVID-19 tests spaced two days apart.

• Restrooms WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE during this event.
