Volunteers are needed on a daily basis to help water, mow, weed and maintain the Peace Garden. We especially need some extra hands to harvest on Tuesday mornings and afternoons for the Trailside Farmers’ Market in Uptown Normal and on Friday mornings for Naturally Yours.

If you’re interested in the fruits of our labors, vegetables from the garden are sold at the Trailside Farmers’ Market each Tuesday from 3:30-6 p.m.
Proceeds go to sustaining the garden so it can continue its outreach to Bloomington’s west side, including donating food to the Western Avenue Community Center and the soup kitchen at St Mary’s Church, and offering reduced prices at our Veggie Bike, which visits sites in west Bloomington.
Volunteers may contact Carolyn Ashley ’14, IWU Peace Garden manager, at cashley@iwu.edu with any questions.
