New Castle’s Culinary Conservation at Safe Berks- Tuesday, July 23 @ 10:00 am-12:00 pm
ELU has the opportunity to join forces with New Castle to transform the outdoor space at Safe Berks. All they ask is that volunteers bring enthusiasm and effort, and they’ll handle the rest. Throughout the opportunity, New Castle will be cooking food to provide to the volunteers and residents of Safe Berks. You can learn even more about this opportunity through this video.
