Come help steward the Festival Beach Food Forest! We will be doing garden maintenance work from 8am-11:30ish during the hot months (July, Aug & Sept.) 9am-noon all other months.
Festival Beach Food Forest is a grassroots pilot project neighboring the Festival Beach Community Garden and RBJ Residential Center in East Austin. We have transformed 2/3rds of an acre of City Park Land into an edible forest garden where visitors can openly forage and enjoy fresh food on the shores of Lady Bird Lake. Fruits, nuts, vegetables and herbs now flourish in this experimental pilot project to reclaim the public commons.
