SUMMARY:Open House & Seed Swap
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our seasonal open house plus seed swap!

For those curious about volunteering or interning at the Sanctuary\, this is a great opportunity to ask questions and see our campus.  \n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Collard City Growers for a seed swap to start building towards spring awakening and growth.
