St. Pete Youth Farm Block Party 2019
St. Pete Youth Farm hosts community volunteer days throughout the year to support its mission of providing access to nutritious food in South St. Pete, but this weekend’s call to action is particularly important.
Black History Month Workday—happening Saturday, Feb. 25 from 9 a.m.-11 a.m. at 1664 12th St. S—encourages community members to extend a helping hand at the urban farm whether you have a green thumb or not.
“Culture and community are pillars of what we do at the farm, and providing space for the community to gather and have the opportunity to get involved and learn is important to us,” the farm’s Instagram reads.
And if you can’t make it out to help this weekend, you can always donate directly to the St. Pete Youth Farm on its website.
