Once a month we host a volunteer event and open house for the ASU Community to come and learn more about our programs at Garden Commons. It is also an opportunity to roll up your sleeves and volunteer to help with our garden tasks from planting, weeding, harvesting, and watering. We provide all necessary tools and training. The garden is maintained by ASU students and all produce is distributed through our weekly Farm Stand or donated to a local food pantry.
