Person planting in a  garden

Solar & Green Thumbs

Community Gardens, behind 10 Liberty St Commercial Building, Deerfield

Date: 4/22/23 – Time: 10:30-12:30

Come celebrate Earth Day with the Couillard Solar Foundation. You won’t want to miss our first solar series of 2023 where we’ll kick off our community garden planting and educational presentations about solar. The event will feature: a ribbon-cutting for our new agrivoltaic garden bed, presentation from an off-grid, solar-powered MN organic farmer, and presentation about CSF’s new initiative to pair solar energy and community gardening in our schools (WE Scapes). We’ll start the day with a presentation about agrivoltaics, solar+gardening in school and solar community gardens. Then we’ll move outside for our planting and ribbon cutting. Last we’ll hear from the farmer running her farm with solar energy.

Light lunch provided. This event is free and open to the public!
