Kickoff Garden Season in West Ritchie!

We are hosting our annual block party to celebrate this season’s opening of the West Ritchie Community Garden! There will be local vendors, Master Composter volunteers, activities for all ages, and a formal introduction to the Community Garden.

We look forward to seeing you there!
