UIS Campus Community Garden

Our UIS Campus Community Garden worknight for tonight, Thursday 7/27, is canceled due to the heat index. Stay cool! The Garden is open for harvesting anytime, and we have some delicious cantaloupe ready to go. Feel free to visit in the morning when it is cooler! See you next week.

Everything's starting to come together in the garden! Watermelon, cantaloupe, loofah, tomatoes, peppers, carrots, potatoes - you name it, we've got it! Updates coming soon for Fall 2022 Work Night events.

Happy gardening, everyone!

Due to the heat advisory and thunderstorm on the way, the weekly work night has been cancelled for today. We’ll hopefully see you next week!

Green, green, green! Good thing it's my favorite color! - All donated to the Central Illinois Foodbank 🌶

We finally had a volunteer last Wednesday! There's nothing more exciting than meeting a new person and giving them veggies for their dinner. Even if you can't make it at 4 or stay the whole time, volunteers/curious visitors are always welcome!

In addition to new deer friends, a friendly skunk decided to pay a visit last night! 🦌 🦨

Stay tuned for a veggie chip recipe I'll be trying out with eggplant, radishes, and beets. (As someone who's never eaten any of these veggies before, I'm excited to share the results)
