Help Friends of Goodale Park keep Columbus Ohio’s oldest (and BEST!) city park looking beautiful. 13+ gardens are 100% volunteer planted and maintained, weeding, watering, litter pickup and more. We can’t do it without you!
Join us Saturday from 9am to noon in Goodale Park. Meet at the Caretaker’s Residence in the center of the park (use Park St driveway into the park and follow until it dead-ends). Please wear weather-appropriate clothing, as we will be working outdoors.
A weather update will be posted on Facebook (@Friends of Goodale Park) at 8am the morning of the event, so please check before heading to the park.
Got tools? Bring ’em! We have a supply of garden gloves and tools, but we always need more. Hand trowels, shovels, and clippers (non-electric, please) are always in demand.
– If you are able, please bring your own gloves, tools, and water to limit the sharing of items
Registration is not required

This volunteer opportunity will be replacing the Short North Civic Association’s July 4th meeting – we encourage SNCA members to volunteer!
