UWSECT Day of Action Transforms Giving Garden
The Giving Garden is a collaboration among the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center, United Way of Southeastern Connecticut and the Robert G. Youngs Family Foundation.
The United Way of Southeastern Connecticut’s Day of Giving at Coogan Farm on Monday June 23 was transformative for The Giving Garden. By the end of the day, three plots of the garden were on schedule to be completed and ready for planting.
Between 75 and 100 volunteers spent all or part of the day at Coogan Farm, shoveling, raking, spreading seaweed and mulch, clearing brush, cutting bamboo, and planting vegetables. The event was organized by the United Way and sponsored by Mohegan Sun, which supplied the majority of the volunteers. A special shout-out to Mohegan Sun human resources manager Kyle Fusaro, who organized the day.
