Have you ever wanted to get involved with gardening at UIC?
Help us prepare for the summer!

Join us for some Spring hands-on gardening and learn how Heritage Garden interns are connecting horticulture with environmental sustainability, cultural diversity, and social justice. Activities will vary, but may include preparing seeds to give away and potting up plants and moving them to different sites. Be prepared to get your hands dirty, make new friends, learn new skills, and have fun!

Limited spots available! Take free seeds/plant when you volunteer!
