Preparing the Scarsdale Garden

The Scarsdale Community Garden at Scarsdale High School will host volunteers for Day of Service, Saturday, May 19

The Scarsdale Sustainable Garden Project, one of the long-time, popular activities of Yale Westchester Day of Service, will host again in 2018.  Yale Day of Service across the globe is scheduled for May 12, 2018.  In Scarsdale, the Day of Service will be held a week later, Saturday, May 19, on the grounds of Scarsdale High School.

Under the leadership of Maggie Favretti '85, volunteers, including Yale alumni and area high school students, will clean up the garden area and prepare it for planting.  The community garden has produced thousands of pounds of food through the years, much of it donated to food pantries and soup kitchens in the region.  Yale volunteers and their guests are also invited to contribute to a pot-luck lunch.

The Garden Project has been honored often for its continuing contributions in community service.  Register for the day by clicking Scarsdale Garden.  Click Garden Project to read more about volunteers--high school students and older, busy Yale alumni--at the garden since 2013.
