Earth Guardians:

In order to minimize waste, we ask that you bring your own reusable cup, dish and eating utensils. We will have a sanitary wash station set up for everyone to handle their own clean up after eating.

We’ll also have recycling & composting stations setup around the site so please dispose properly. Thanks!

Parking:

Parking will be in nearby lots that are only a short walk away from the event location. More info on this will be coming soon. When you first arrive onsite, please visit the welcome & orientation area to receive basic information about the schedule and layout of the day, tips on radical self-care, information about on-site medics, and more.

Opening:

Our opening circle will begin at 10:30 AM. This will be the best time to see the faces of all of the facilitators, project and workshop leads, medics, etc. After this time, people will move into hands on projects, workshops, dancing, socializing and all that goodness. Please be empowered to ask one of our organizers if you need to find someone or something.

Info on host site: GROW Enrichment is a registered 501c3 non-profit organization based in Nashville, TN. As a community development partner, GROW seeks to increase sustainable land use in the urban setting. Through a partnership with Metro Nashville Parks Department, GROW operates a large project site at Two Rivers Park where we are applying permaculture methodology to engage the public in the process of restoring an urban green space. Our goal is to engage people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities as we teach restorative land management through hands-on experiences. Whether you attend an organized program with us, participate in a volunteer event, tour the site with a group, or meet us by chance while you are out enjoying the green-way; we hope you will find inspiration for your own ecological journey when you visit GROW!
