Dear Professor,

I am writing to invite you and your students to participate in fun, engaging community service work at Edible Schoolyard NYC.

Edible Schoolyard NYC partners with public schools to build gardens and kitchen classrooms where children can engage in hands-on learning. Our goal is to provide students with the knowledge, skills and environment required to make healthier choices and change the way they eat…for life.

Volunteers are integral to our success, and through their efforts set an example to students and the community about the value of caring and service. Students accomplish much of the work, but many projects are most appropriate for adults. Volunteers work to further the beauty and productivity of the garden, and maintain spaces for learning and exploration. All levels of experience are welcome here! And we have both long-term and one-time opportunities available.

Please see the attached flier for more details! And please forward widely. We truly need new volunteers this Fall.

Thanks and I hope to work with you and your students in the garden at PS 216.

Best,
Natasha Eziquiel-Shriro
Program coordinator
