G4G Chicago + Heartland Alliance FarmWorks

WHAT: G4G Chicago + Heartland Alliance FarmWorks

WHEN: Sunday, August 19th, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

WHERE: 407 N Kedzie Ave. The site is near the Kedzie Green Line stop, and parking is available at the 400 N Albany site a few blocks away, or along Franklin Blvd. and N. Troy St.

ABOUT: For many low-income communities, good jobs and healthy food are in short supply. To help solve both problems, Heartland Human Care Services (HHCS), in partnership with the City of Chicago, NeighborSpace, and the Greater Chicago Food Depository, operates a 2.6-acre urban farm in Chicago’s East Garfield Park neighborhood. We distribute local produce of the highest quality to those who need it most and support people overcoming multiple barriers to employment to secure full-time, permanent, viable jobs.

Please wear closed-toed shoes and be prepared to get dirty! 🙂 Sunscreen and hats are advised. (A water bottle and a snack bar may be a good idea as well.)

If you need to get in touch with me on the day of the event, please text/call (781) 351-9081.
