Queer Composting, Gardening, and Trivia! - California
August 30, 2025 - 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Last day to register: August 28, 2025
TVOP is partnering with Seeds of Hope and the Edendale Grove Microfarm to host a queer intro to composting, gardening, and trivia event!
A Seeds of Hope expert will walk us through some composting and gardening basics, and we'll put our knowledge to the test with some hands-on composting, weeding, watering, tree care, and plant care. Come prepared to learn and play in the dirt! Bring gardening gloves if you have them - some extras will be available.
We ask folks under the age of 18 to please register themselves and an adult to accompany them. This event is intended for the LGBTQ+ community. If you require a service dog to attend, please let us know and we’ll collaborate with you on how to keep you both comfortable and hydrated at this event.

Information for our land acknowledgment was gathered from nativeland.ca, which provides an estimate of original indigenous land occupation, but does not take into account migratory patterns or movement of the many surrounding communities. We recognize the historical complexity of indigenous movement across the land, and honor with gratitude the many, many surviving native nations whose land we benefit from in our work to diversify the outdoors.
