Seating installed at Sprout Food Forest

The corner of 30th Street and Carpenter Avenue has seen massive improvements over the course of the past two years. Most recently, thanks to funding from a Prairie Meadows Community Betterment Grant, there are now 14 Adirondack chairs and a three-person glider installed at the Sprout Food Forest. We hope you will check it out this summer and take the time to get outdoors!

More improvements are coming.
Later this month, a large cantilever umbrella will be installed over the outdoor classroom and interpretative signage throughout the Food Forest.

Reserve the outdoor classroom
Sprout is now located as an option on the Drake EMS reservation system. Consider hosting your class or a team meeting in the garden.

Volunteer with us!
All are welcome to dig and play in the dirt. No prior experience is necessary and a volunteer training will be provided. Sign-up on DUgood.
