Washington Youth Garden Celebration

June 8 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Free

(DC) (Friends of the National Arboretum) Join us for a picnic party! Come celebrate the expansion of FONA’s Washington Youth Garden. The garden now has a beautiful new honeycomb fence around it that expands our growing space and makes it more inviting, visible, and accessible. We’ll not only celebrate the completion of the fence, but also all of you – our Grow the Garden campaign supporters and community members who have made this project possible. Come celebrate with us!

  • Explore the expanded Washington Youth Garden and new fence
  • Hands-on garden activities
  • Live music from East of the River Steel Band
  • Natural dye & floral jewelry demo with local artist Arrin Sutliff & An-Phuong Ly
  • Garden crafts, face painting, and other activities for all ages

Bring a blanket and your own picnic, or enjoy lunch from one of the food truck vendors that will be at the garden.
