Empowered Spaces Community Garden Work Day
Planting Connections, Growing Communities
Join us from 10:00 - 12:00PM for our FIRST Community Garden Workday of 2025.
Imagine a space where fresh food is grown by the community, for the community. Where your hands in the soil heal both the land and yourself. A garden where people come together to learn, heal, and build a more just and sustainable future. That’s what we’re growing at Empowered Spaces Community Garden— and we invite you to be a part of it!
We believe that food is medicine, that land stewardship is healing, and that everyone—regardless of income—deserves access to nutritious, high-quality food. Through our Collaborative Food Share Program we share the harvest with individuals and families in the community who are in need of access to quality food. We invite you to join our garden co-op, and in our mission to create more of the world we want to see!

Rooted & Resilient: A Shared Practice of Mindful Sensing
Join us for a grounding 30-minute sensory mindfulness practice in the garden led by Laurie Brockhaus, LCSW, E-RYT500 C-IAYT (she/her). We’ll gently guide our attention through the senses—sight, sound, touch, smell, and even taste—inviting awareness of our natural surroundings and the present moment. In tuning into nature and the support of community, we’re reminded of our ability to adapt, grow, and renew. This practice offers an opportunity to take a pause from everyday stress and busyness and reconnect with your own inner steadiness.
