What do garden-fresh herbs, ethics and Sparky all have in common? 🌿

They’re all part of our Wednesday Humanities Week event at ASU’s Durham Hall!

Join the Humanities Lab, and our Justice Through School Gardens students, for a morning of growth, creativity and community connection in partnership with Sparky’s Garden. 🌻

Take home a pot of fresh herbs (thyme or cilantro), explore the Hayden Library—Seed Library, learn about the ethics and culture of food and see how Humanities Lab students are designing gardens that cultivate community and civic engagement. Plus, grab a garden-fresh snack!

🗓️ Wednesday, Oct. 22 | 10:30 - 11:45 AM
📍 Durham Hall, Outdoor Terrace

Free & open to all ASU students.

Don’t miss grabbing a photo with real-live Sparky! 📸 😈🔱

Oh—and tag a friend who loves plants! .usp .farm .farm
