Fall Break Fun

Although many Elon students were off-campus for Fall Break, there was some action going on at Elon’s Community Garden!

EV! Alternative Fall Break Trip leaders Rachel and Kendra led a group of Elon students and staff to various locations around Elon to perform community service and learn about the local community. On Monday, the group spent the morning seeding, planting and weeding the in the garden.

Rachel is a familiar face around the garden, but it was a first time adventure for everyone else. Despite that, everone was a hard and enthusiastic worker!

As a reward, the group enjoyed eating the ripe tomatoes that are still hanging around (probably not for too long).

Seeds, seeds and more seeds

Thanks especially to Rachel for ensuring that a few more people know about all of the awesome things going on at the garden.
