SUMMARY:Grow & Walk-A-Thon DELCO (5K)
DESCRIPTION:Inaugural neighborhood 5K that showcases the beauty\, resilience\, and potential of urban spaces\n\n\nRegister at this LINK\n \nJoin us for the Grow & Walk-A-Thon 5K\, an all-ages community wellness walk presented in partnership with Delaware County Parks & Recreation. \nThis celebratory event is the culminating challenge of Grow & Walk DelCo\, a multi-week wellness program that inspires participants to build healthy habits through walking\, gardening\, yoga\, journaling\, and other accessible activities that support physical\, mental\, and social well-being. \n \nThe Grow & Walk-A-Thon 5K is more than the final challenge of our Grow & Walk wellness program—it’s also a celebration of 10 years of Black Girls With Green Thumbs. As we mark this milestone\, we’re planting seeds for the next decade of healthier communities\, stronger neighborhoods\, and joyful movement. \n\n\n\nWhile the Walk-A-Thon marks the finale of the Grow & Walk program\, the 5K is open to everyone. Whether you’ve participated throughout the season or are simply looking for a fun\, active way to spend the day\, we’d love to walk with you. \n \nUnlike a competitive road race\, this is an accessible\, walkable 5K designed for people of all ages and fitness levels. Beginners\, leisure walkers\, families\, seniors\, and seasoned walkers are all encouraged to participate at their own pace while enjoying the natural beauty and historic spaces of eastern Delaware County. \n \nThe event begins and ends at the County Park on Springfield Road and concludes with a community celebration and complimentary lunch. A fitness instructor will lead a pre-walk warm-up to help everyone get moving before we set off together. \n\n\n\nWhether you’re completing the final Grow & Walk challenge or taking your very first step toward a healthier lifestyle\, we invite you to join us for a morning of movement\, connection\, and community.

SUMMARY:Garden Building Volunteer Day
DESCRIPTION:Raised beds and raised awareness! Volunteer to build the new learning and market garden at the new county park in Southeast DelCo.\n\n\n \nVolunteer to build DelCo’s newest garden.\n \nJoin us for a hands-on volunteer day as we build a new garden at the county park in support of our two emerging programs\, Grow and Walk Delco and Gardeners Without Borders. Together\, we will construct raised garden beds that will serve as both an educational learning garden for community members and a youth-supported market garden producing fresh\, locally grown food for the farmers market. \n \nVolunteers will help assemble garden beds and prepare them for planting by filling them with soil and organic amendments—laying the groundwork for a thriving garden ecosystem that will nourish both people and place. This garden is an important step in increasing access to locally grown food in Southeast Delaware County\, strengthening regional food systems\, and reconnecting communities with the sources of what they eat. \n\n\n\nAll ages are invited to build the new garden beds!\n \nThis volunteer day will be hosted in collaboration with youth participating in the Gardeners Without Borders program\, offering an opportunity for intergenerational learning and shared stewardship. Together\, we are planting more than seeds—we are cultivating connection\, care for the land\, and pathways to long-term community wellness. \n\n\n\nBeyond food production\, the creation of an organic garden contributes to the health of our shared watershed. Healthy soil supports water absorption\, reduces runoff\, and helps restore ecological balance in our local environment. Just as importantly\, time spent outdoors—touching soil\, breathing fresh air\, and working alongside neighbors—has meaningful benefits for physical health\, mental wellbeing\, and a sense of belonging. \n \nThrough this volunteer project\, we will all act as environmental and community stewards\, tending to the soil that nourishes the natural world and our place in it. \n\n\nRefreshments provided.  \n \nBYOB…water bottle that is!\nIn being good stewards of our planet\, we will not be providing individual plastic water bottles\, although water will be available. \nIf you don’t have water bottles\, we will have Black Girls With Green Thumbs water bottles available for sale.
