Volunteers are needed in preparation for the Victory Garden BLITZ on the Camp Fire burn scar planned for August, with installations from August 22-30. The project is sponsored by the Butte County Local Food Network. Volunteers will help build some boxes in advance and install the 4-by-4 foot planting boxes for 50 to 58 applicants on the ridge and Concow.
COVID-19 safe teams of three or four will also help residents with their “Victory Gardens.” Boxes include a 4-by-4 wood box, soil, six plants, mulch, hardware cloth and a chicken wire cage creation for critter control.
To sign up to volunteer, for garden boxes or for questions, go to bclocalfood.org/victory-gardens.
