  Right now we are in need of people to help cut very bushes, lay down cardboard and wood chips, move mulch, and other Garden prep.
  We are always looking for people who have experience with power tools who can help us with chicken coop repair, build a lawn mower shelter,other projects, help build hop trellises, move mulch, and if possible clear limbs and trees. It would be great to have someone who is comfortable with a chainsaw.
